To me, the author was confusing traits that are common themes across humanity with the religions in and of themselves. I feel like most of humanity is wired toward religion, otherwise there would have been a purely atheist society long before this century. Thus, to a lot of people, it's easy to pinpoint the bad aspects of society on religion, when, in reality, its humanity itself which is geared toward destruction.
So very true. Thank you!
I too feel like that us what the author is doing. She is taking her bad experiences I'm the catholic church where she worshipped for much of her youth, and using that at a yardstick to judge and condemn rganised religion. Finding a way to prove the existence of God using science.
Humans are flawed, she needs to reme!her that . humans are flawed and the religion may not be flawed. Not saying that is what it is, but I think it is important to remember that.
