Five things religion-haters should know

Amplify’d from www.stuartdavis.com

1, There are levels of religion.

The point is, religion should not be regarded as horizontal & homogenous. All belief systems include a vertical chain of development.

2, There are healthy & pathological versions of every level.

A religious person can be healthy or sick at any stage of development. The answer to sick religion is healthy religion.

3, The more people evolve, the less religious (fundamentalist) they are.

4, At its higher levels, Religion resonates with science and rationality.

That’s because at its higher levels, religion becomes spiritual.

5, Everybody starts at the bottom.
