You can't seriously be asking...

A browser error destroyed a post I was making as addendum to my earlier reply and I'm too lazy to re-do it. Succintly put, religion has been an impediment to our progress as a species and it has to end now.

Galileo said it best: "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." We should be free to investigate matters of potential importance without the restrictions of unquestioning and feeble-minded people who lack the foresight to realize what's really in their best interest. Your doctrines are nothing more than a thorn in humanity's side.
