I really don't understand get so angry about the existence of threads about religion, especially since the discussion has been quite civil so far. Why do some people find them so threatening?
I imagine I'll get around to discussing schnapper's points about being able to selectively quote the bible for just about many subjects, that we've come much farther than Freud in the field of psychology, and my view that coming at human nature from a inherently negative viewpoint, that of "sin" has a detrimental impact on both the individual and collective psyches. Other than those, though, we seem to be agreement... I'm just rather lazy/busy to want to do it at the moment, which is really no excuse at all.
