Documentary about the Catholic Church clergy abuse coverups

This is well worth watching. I am not all the way through all the videos yet, but I will say this about what I have seen so far; while most think that religion delivers us from evil and saves our souls, one has to question the evil leading some of these religions? IMO, religion is a double edged sword, on one side it can bring peace, love, humanity and charity, on the other hand it can bring abuse, war, and death. And no religion is without guilt. All of them have killed in the name of their God.

I’m at peace with being a deist. Remember, Man created religion, not God. Something to think about in the New Year.

A majority of South Dakotans have figured it out; Religion and Faith have nothing to do with each other

Luke, let’s jump over these heathans, with our BMW

While this may surprise some people in the clergy, it does not surprise me. You don’t NEED religion to have faith in a creator. As former governor, Ventura of Minnesota, said once, “Religion is a crutch.”

An overwhelming majority of South Dakotans say they believe in God, but only about half of the state’s residents say religion is very important in their lives, and a smaller portion than that attend services each week, according to a new survey examining religion.

You will also notice from the survey that states that take religion more seriously are more likely to be involved with right wing extremism, teabaggery, and general ignorance;

Mississippi, followed by several other Southern states, was tops in religious fervor, according to the survey, which asked questions about worship attendance, frequency of prayer, belief in God and religion’s importance in one’s life.

Now get out your bible, your gun, white hood and confederate flag and go pray.
