Religion is Anti-Human Life

Reader comment on item: Violent Jihadis v. Lawful Jihadis

Submitted by Ralph C Whaley MD (United States), Jan 5, 2009 at 09:25

The essence of religion as all serious scholars agree is "Faith". Faith is a belief in the absence of or in contraversion of evidence. Reason is man's only means of knowledge and his means of survival. Faith is anti- reason, anti- mind and anti- life. Thank you Dr. John Ridpath for this insight in your lecture "Religon Versus Man" available from the Ayn Rand Book Store.
