With never-ending religious conflict in the world it is necessary to critically examine the differences between religion as an institution, a political weapon, and as an excuse for tribal warfare. Fundamentally, from India and the Middle East, to Asia and the Americas, religious principles are mostly universal. The further back in history one goes it becomes obvious that sophisticated philosophical wisdom was more common in so-called primitive times than in modern times. The choice between religion, atheism, spirituality, and agnosticism are different ways of addressing the same question of the purpose of life, God, faith, heaven and hell, etc., while science is being used to convince people that there is no purpose to life. Meanwhile, those that try to convince us there is no meaning or purpose in life, are heavily invested in making contact with their own gods and obtaining whatever power those gods may bestow. We shouldn’t throw Baby Jesus out with the Bath Water.
