“When Islam, the most volatile strain of the human psychological virus known as religion, harnesses the power of nuclear weapons, the world’s days are truly numbered.”

Comments like that is what is working to destroy the world. Though I agree that religion is a psychological crutch, you generalize religion as destroying the world. Also, “Islam” already owns nuclear weapons - Pakistan. The world hasn’t been destroyed yet.

Innately I still feel that we do know what is generally right and what is generally wrong.  Making it so complicated has caused corruption and problems.  Simplicity can help save us, but the way we are headed with “I must have this” wether it be a material thing, or power, or whatever will destroy us…and maybe even sooner than we think.  We also forget that everything around us by some means is connected.  It all comes down to the domino effect.

Yes, religion is the virus.  Islam, Judaism, Christianity, all equally dangerous and when we do wipe ourselves off the planet religion will be the cause.

“When Islam, the most volatile strain of the human psychological virus”

Frank,
Is Islam the psychological virus, or is the psychological virus, “megalomania” which uses emotionalism, conflict, and false political ideology to ensure power.

Let me help out, little alien. The concept that killed them was:

“Islam is good. Everything else is evil and false”.

When Islam, the most volatile strain of the human psychological virus known as religion, harnesses the power of nuclear weapons, the world’s days are truly numbered.

They would all be alive today, if the planet hadn’t been controlled by so many “DICKS!”
