I know that there is a better discussion just waiting to happen if excellent and intelligent posters like unionist didn't feel a need to undermine discussion of God by turning it into a discussion of organized religion.

Before you flatter me any further, know thou what I believe:

Religion (organized, or not) is bad. It's divisive, and deceptive. It separates people into believers and non-believers. And it seeks and provides phoney explanations for real phenomena. Perhaps worst of all, it offers hope as a substitute for action.

The more we know, the less we need to believe.
