It can be argued, convincingly, that Religions have been responsible for more war, death, chaos, mayhem, superstition, cruelty, stupidity, slavery, theft, murder, criminality, disease, torture, sexual perversion, rape, and ignorance than ANY other influence upon Humanity. They have betrayed, conquered and slaughtered hundreds of millions of human beings during the short history of human beings on Earth. Do NOT take my word for this. Do YOUR OWN research, and discover for yourself who are the REAL ENEMIES of Mankind….. In this short video, Stephan Fry delivers an excellent diatribe on this subject.
