In fact, you should be equally thankful, because imagine a world where your wishes COULD feesibly come true. I suspect you wouldn't like that world at all, as its likely religious leaders would have eradicated organized science by now.

My rule regarding such things is simple: make sure your principles can't come back to bite you in the ass. As such, I choose freedom as a principle - freedom to agree, disagree, and join others in espousing both.You'd be suprised.

I am not in favor of baning religion, but would rather prefer a world where people would be sensible ennough to abandon the concept and just accept that there are things in this universe we can not explain yet. There is no need to fill in the blanks with god did it. That does nothing to advance human understanding, and may even hinder it as a fallback for the mentally lazy. Why bother trying to figure something out when the answer s allready there?

Just so there are is no confusion, I detest organized religion of all kinds, don't see as any one being better or worse than the others. Same as my view on politicians.
