    No. It’s a scam created by humans to control the behavior of other humans. And to steal their $$ with false hopes of a nonexistent “paradise”.

    I find it mind boggling that people still get indoctrinated into the Cults. It’s sad and pathetic.

        Not the OP, but I believe religion, while having some positive aspects, is overall harmful. Lies always are.

      • Very harmful. Full of BS. Countless millions murdered in the name of religion. Trillions $$ stolen from people’s pockets. And more Trillions $$ in slave labor, either true slaves or fools that have volunteered many hours of their time.

        Big religion should not be treated any differently than the truly rotten Cults .
