    There are peaks and troughs to religion. Today we are in a bit of a trough.

    The major problems in this world today are political. Our present systems of governance come from another age. They do not work so well in this age, in an age that is working towards globalism

    I think you'll find humans very capable of making a mess of things without too much assistance. The question is, has religion modified our moral and social structures more than if religion did not exist and I can't see how anybody could answer that no religion would have been better. Religion didn't invent the enmity between people, sure it's been used as an excuse, but we were already a brutal, self-centred animal.

    It seems to me that our legal, moral and ethical structures came about, or were empowered by religion. So if we are basket cases today, then my guess is we wouldn't exist at all without the influence of religion which has in some ways tamed a savage animal.

    But we will never know because we can't find the rewind button.
