"Religion is poison"
by Prof. L. Inguista September 11, 2006
Get the religion mug.A belief that sets rules on how to live ones' life, and often causes intolerance to diversity. If you follow it, you are wasting your time.
Religion is the opiate of the masses; This is nothing but the truth. People need to wise up and stop living in their hopeless phantasms of so called "faith". The Bible, along with all these other religious texts (qur'an, torah etc.) are nothing more than fairytale storybooks that have yet to be proven and I truly pity those who base their whole lives around it.
