Christianity--like Judaism, Hinduism, Islam, Sikhism, and all other forms of supernatural religion as well as the superficially atheistic Zen Buddhism, the elitist religion of a savagely murderous and hideously repressive class system--is a pack of explicit and implicit lies that exploits the misery of the oppressed in order to gain their assent to oppression. That is what it is and that, in the final analysis, is all it is. The hell with it and all its apologists. It's high time that the left began fighting religion itself again instead of seeking esoteric or "folk" forms of this deadly illusion to parade as "hip" or virtuous alternatives. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
