In a spirit of share the wealth if you still actually believe the export part, you might benefit from reading more Chomsky and maybe Confessions of an Economic Hitman. Religious fervor is associated with low standards of education, and organized religion with politics. One good takedown is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZRcYaAYWg4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZRcYaAYWg4
- cjbgkagh 2y agoThanks for the suggestion but I've already read both of them. You and I are on opposite ends of the spectrum, you have an affinity with eukaryotes and I barely share an affinity with most of humanity. I'm interested in knowing things for curiosity sake and my general support for humanity, specifically the unthriving middle class, is for my own comfort and desire to live in a nice society. I see religion is just another form of politics and politics is inherent to people, to hate religion is to hate people. I don't particularly like religion but I don't particularly like people either. Given the inherent constraints of people I'm not sure how I would design a nice society without religion. It appears to me that those who try to stamp out religions often end up creating new ones complete with articles of fait, heresy, and excommunications.
