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.

1001_Things_To_Do_While_You’re_Dead — An INTERVIEW with Lawrence R. Spencer
BE YOURSELF FOR A CHANGE.
“Relax. As a disembodied spirit you don’t have to hang around with people any more so you don’t have to try to impress anyone. In human society you are usually expected to look good, smell good, be good, do good and exhibit other behavior that may not come naturally to you.
For example, if you don’t take a bath for a few weeks your body will stink like a bag of rotten meat – which is essentially what it is. As a spirit you don’t have to shower, shave, brush your teeth, eat, go to work, pee or perform any of those nasty habits.
The 19th century German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer (1788 – 1860) said, “We forfeit three-fourths of ourselves in order to be like other people.”
So, forget all that stuff you were taught about “now I’m supposed to…”. Do what pleases you.”
