Is there any difference between a religion and a cult? Back in the good old 20th century, the future was bright and shiny with promises of hovercars, a lifestyle like the Jetsons and yet now we’re here it seems we seem to have a surfeit of religion with religious nutters in the USA, Middle East and even the East end of London.
Christianity in this country seems ashamed of itself. They don’t dare mention God but try and get new converts through courses on spirituality like the Alpha course or hold events like Signsevent.com which has been popping up on the tube. 18,000 people on July 2nd at Upton Park. That would be a big turnout for a West Ham match! It’s only in the small print (well FAQ) that the word Christianity popus up out of the woodwork. But the adverts give it away with the F word. Faith = Irrational belief. Superstition.
I commend Richard Dawkins for his all guns blazing assault on religion. Let’s Praise the man! If you haven’t seen it, The root of all evil Part 1 and Part 2 and Part 3.
This is a man who knows what he’s talking about. Oh and while we’re at it, lets free Xenu.
