Could be. If people stopped praying to an image of Jesus that isn't real, believing in a past that never existed and hoping for a future that will never come, maybe they will start dealing with reality?
More than likely they will find something else to believe in, something probably more vindictive.
Just look at modern progressives, they have placed religion with political theory.
More vindictive? Replaced religion with political theory? Like whoever said this?
" I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man."
isn't that a good thing?
No, more like "Believe in AGW or you are an evil heretic and must be burned upon the stake via Twitter"
Ok, thats messed up. I'll give you that. But that doesn't change the fact that people really need to deal with reality in order to survive.
The writing is on the wall.
Do you really wan't to be that old geezer refusing to heed the warnings saying, "I ain't afraid of no volcano"?
A volcano is an obvious hazard, all that lava and ash.
And when you are asked to deal with a volcano, you are told to RUN AWAY, not to change how you live your life.
Plus the consequences of not running away are pretty obvious, and immediate.
The consequence of teaching children to regard rational thinking as the enemy of faith to the point where they can't see what is pretty obvious and immediate is obvious and immediate..
