(7,811 posts)1. You have a right not to be, but I am anti-religion
Religion is all about domination, control of thought, and your money.
I say that with deep and abiding conviction.

(7,811 posts)6. that's more on point!
I have a barrow filled of such thoughts, but attempted to use restraint of expressing those here. Beginning since I was 9 years old, but absolutely by the time I was 12. Nothing I've seen and heard over the past seven decades have changed my perspective otherwise. If anything, it's only continuously re-affirmed.
