Religion promotes a closed world view and is a naturally divisive mechanism in society. No logically thinking being would ever adhere to such a mindset if they truly cared for the well being of society as a whole. Hah.

I quoted that off youtube. Should've mentioned it actually.
Personally I don't believe in religions, mostly cause I'm into history, philosophy and psycology, which all in a way or another disproofs religions different gods. I don't care if you believe, if it helps you live a better life, do it, just don't make me hear about it.

it's also played a huge role in forming some of the most successful civilizations in the world. while it may be silly, I still think it should be studied because it relates strongly to current trends in culture and tradition. if you actually believe in a religion, keep it to yourself.

This video makes no sense, the guy speaking doesn't even have a British accent.

I found the video to be very interesting, but it did not change my views, or lack thereof.
