Religion is...

Superficially maybe...

 

Religion is an exercise for the intellectuals and "the opiate for the masses".

 

I am listening to 'the forum', a world service podcast, and a discussion comparing gardens to ceramics eventually results in the metaphor being extended to religion. This seems like lazy intellectualism, bringing the uncertain to the uncertain. A unfitting (though similar) pair of metaphors to something that is infinitely able to accommodate any form of through.

 

Maybe this explains intelligent people who follow religion for the atheist.

NOT GOOD!

 

Anyway.

 

Just wanted to moan.
