Entry 8

"Religion [. . .] is the opiate[m] of the masses[people]." Marx, not the best of our great thinkers, had it right. Religous ceramonies are attended more often in times of strife and hardship. Why do people need their gods?

It may have something to do with human reasoning:

1. We feel a need for something greater.
2. We have no reasoning skills

Scary thought, that we are the highest creatures the universe has to offer. This is Why we invent things like U.F.O.'s and gods. But without these gods, there would be no wars, as there would be no afterlife, causing men to lose their bravery.

If people were born with reasoning skills, there would be no reason for grat wars or insignifigant duels. They could talk it out, and we would be easy prey for those U.F.O.'s unreasonable minds had thought up.

Humans have the innate gift of brute force. All they have the ability to do is kill, hurt, and destroy. We wonder about the 4 horsemen in the book of Revelation. We are those 4. We bring Pestalence, Famine, and Death on our own. We are the antichrist. Read Between The Lines!
