God on Religion

There’s a punk band down on earth now, called Bad Religion? The problem with that name is that it’s redundant. Religion is purely a mortal invention. I would never have come up with such a godawful idea. Religious leaders like to say that faith brings people together. As you may have noticed, that’s not exactly how it works. Faith brings small groups of people together, typically dominated by a self-anointed individual or hierarchical structure, at whose direction and for whose benefit they can stone, spear, cannonade or otherwise obliterate other small groups of people, whom faith has brought together under someone else’s control.
