There's definitely a God...

i agree with that tynan, especially section 3. this is where your anger should be directed, not at religion itself, more how it conducts itself in our society.

Shit ! finally I have a follower ! Brother let us meet this Sunday in the holy tunnel network I have dug (late at night and naked and in divine ecstasy) beneath Primrose Hill, come unclothed otherwise your god will be angered.

I would say my issue is less 'how' religion conducts itself in society, but more that it does at all - (and here when I say 'conducts itself' I mean to say influence or steer).

I suppose it comes down to something like this: If you want to fuck yourself up the arse with a holy candle because your religion has informed you this is what the incorporeal nothingness you worship wants you to do - then go for it, get that candle up there, enjoy it, cram a couple of extra ones up there if it pleases you both.

But as soon as you start aiming that candle other less interested arses, then you should start to think about reigning in your superstitious ideas.
