Kill Religion! The Deserved Death of Faith
Have you ever wondered why people have faith? Why don't they choose not to have faith? How does it help you to believe things for which no reasons or evidence can be provided? Is faith pure wish fulfillment? Is it social conditioning, brainwashing, mind control? Imagine a world where no one had ever heard of Moses, the Buddha, Jesus, and Mohammed, but everyone had heard of Pythagoras, Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. Would our world be better or worse? Imagine that not a single person believed in anything. Imagine that no one placed any faith in anything. Imagine that everyone was rational, logical, and committed to evidence and proof. Imagine that everything was rejected that didn't involve reason, logic, evidence and proof. How would that lead to a worse world? Wouldn't humans be much smarter? Wouldn't they evolve much faster?
Humanity actually comprises two species: Mythos humans who believe fantastical tales, and Logos humans who are concerned with reason, logic, evidence and proof.
What kind of person chooses to believe that a man (Moses) went up a mountain and communicated with the Creator of the Universe? What kind of person chooses to believe that a man (Jesus Christ) actually was the Creator of the Universe? What kind of person believes that an illiterate man (Mohammed) went into a cave and had the Koran, the infallible Word of God, dictated to him by the Angel Gabriel? What kind of person believes that a man (the Buddha) sat under a tree, closed his eyes, meditated, and thereby unlocked the innermost nature of reality?
The Mythos species is an insane species. They have turned the world into a mental asylum. Why should the Logos species choose to be in a madhouse alongside the nutters, people who demonstrate day in and day out that they are literally capable of believing anything at all. There is no sufficiently preposterous belief that will not be believed by millions of Mythos people if it is presented to them in the right, emotional way.
Nothing is impossible to the Mythos people. They believe in magic. If you believe that God was born of a 14-year-old Jewish virgin in a stable, what could you possibly reject as "unbelievable"? Once you have accepted the unlikeliest propositions, what will cause you to stop? Why should you believe one impossible thing but reject another impossible thing? What possible rational basis could you have for such a rejection?
The Logos species will never convince mad Mythos people that the beliefs they most cherish are insane. And why should they bother? Why don't the members of the Logos species create a new world, a Smart World, where faith is abolished, where Mythos is consigned to entertainment and no one under any circumstances believes any story told by anyone? Reality is based on reason, logic, evidence and proof. It has nothing to do with manmade stories and fantasies.
It's time for the Logos species to create a faith-free zone where intelligent people will never again be held back by retards who pray and meditate. How many prayers were needed to land men on the moon? How much meditation was used to power rockets to Mars? If you pray or meditate, you are a member of the functionally retarded Mythos species. It's time for the Logos species to say Bye to the likes of you.
You are not the answer to humanity's problems, you are the exact problem that needs to be overcome. You are the brake on human progress. You are holding back the Logos species. Without you, they would now be living in paradise.
