Assuming we do not annihilate the planet, how long before we are religion free?

If you are not a communist, why do you care?

Live and let live. Separate religion from state and live morally and who cares what religion someone else is or is not.

I don't think we will ever be religion free. But the major
religions will take one hell of a hit when we finally make
contact with other civilizations in the galaxy or elsewhere.
Their paradigm that humans are God's elites will take a big
hit. I hope I live to see that day.

But spirituality will always be with us. And many spiritual
people will still feel the need to be organized with others.
Why not?

You almost have a point.


So the opposite of religious is Communist?


Funny how people's brain work. Or don't work.


I would say the opposite of religious is being aware and reality based.


And not using God as an excuse to bomb other countries or to run Presidential campaigns with platforms derived from the Ten Commandments.


Why do we need religion gone?


Because TPTB use religion to control, to keep people stupid and unaware, and to keep them believing that our leaders have our best interests at heart because they are fellow believers.


It's a racket that has to go if we are to ever move forward.

I wonder if Christians had their own planet - how long would they continue to believe what they believe?

Noone should care what religion someone else is!!!

It is absolutely non sequitor.

It is morality and maintaining decorum in society that makes a society and when that breaks down that is where problems arise from.

Again, live and let live.

People who have a problem with religious freedom are people who have an agenda, and are obviously PAID to make issue of forever harping on various religions.

My question? Why would anybody other than a communist care?

All of the planets in our solar system are inhabited by "Ethereal" beings: They are of a higher frequency, so we don't see them; however, they live in 'crimeless' societies with little need for "religions".......

But you must earn your place among these societies, before you will be accepted!

What part of separation of church and state did you not understand? Oh, by-the-by, feel free to serve that ball as high as you would like my friend :)

OK, that was well written and well delivered. It was exactly what I would expect, but that's OK. I won't try to challenge you, for your response would be just as scripted, and so a waste of time from my perspective.


You say people are not mind controlled by religion.



OK, so sit back and close your eyes and imagine a candidate running for President who got on national TV and said:

"I am not religious. I belong to no religion or ever will. I see it all as glorified mythology. The God of the Christian bible is an invention to placate and to control. I place my faith in the universe and the intelligence from whence it originated."


Tell me the reaction would not be overwhelming and negative - to the point of violent - and that he or she would lose all chance of winning.


Not that people are mind controlled or anything.

You speak of pseudo-religion, not actual religion.


I was addressing the Big Five, of which Buddhism and Hinduism
are best suited to survive first contact.

I have no problem with religion as long as you don't tell me
what to believe. I have my own religion and it's membership
is restricted to just me, and my God.

I regard Hinduism as the only "true" religion in that it has no clear beginning - it is said it is as old as the planet itself - it teaches that it doesn't matter what religion you choose - that all fingers pint to the same moon - that the wheel of life unites all - that we go in and out of form and up a staircase to enlightenment or samadhi.

Now, as no religion can be viewed as being better based upon its adherents, it is understood that Hindus are not, in and of themselves perhaps the best representatives of Hinduism - as they are just as clueless in many ways as the rest of humanity -

Your so right many hindus are not good representatives.

I regard swami praphupad ( Founder of Hare Krsna's)
one of the best examples how someone should follow the vedic scriptures.
Because.....


It is all about consciousness. And what people believe does not make then necessarily more aware.

Just as soon as researchers can devise a perfect, universal, deterministic ontology.

OK, I'll hit the ball lower so it doesn't go over your head.


Religious freedom is fine.


Religious seepage into all areas of society aimed at passing laws or repealing laws that affect all of us is a problem.


The nature of Christianity is to spread and to infect.


That is its nature and its mission.


It seeks to legalize its own version of morality, which is pretty cut and dry.


Would you like to live under Sharia law, as an example?


In countries where religion is allowed to dominate the culture, there is an unavoidable evolution toward extremism.


If Christians had their way, we would be praying over our groceries at the supermarket as the bagger put them in the bag.
