Why I hate religion #1
Note: These are not in order of hatred, but as and when I find more reasons.
Anyone with more than a passing interest in the ‘08 US Presidential Race will know who John Hagee is. Alas that guy is not really a reason to hate religion per se; there are always crazies in any belief system. In fact it was reading a story about an interview with him that ticked me off:
Hagee’s phone lines were clogged with calls from worshipers asking whether they should vote for McCain.
And there it is. Hagee’s followers were conflicted as to whether to vote for a guy to be the most powerful man in the free world, and what did they do? Did they do a little research, weigh up all the options, and decide whether the guy fitted into their vision of the world? No. They asked their Pastor to tell them what to do.
Not taking responsibility for one’s own life. Another reason I hate religion.
