What if you are all wrong and all religion was created by an intelligence running this planet who knew it would divide people and manipulate them into destroying themselves? What if this was all part of a plan to keep you from realizing your own personal power? All (most)religion teaches you to be subservient to a supreme being, a deity. What if the plan is to weaken your mind into believing in a deity that never existed so that you could be more docile and controlled with teachihngs in the name of religion? What if I told you everything you ever learned about religion, health, the leaders of this country, and the issues at hand being covered in the media like the "war on terror" were all a lie?
