Religion of peace...

It is truly ridiculous that we have any religion existing in todays society.

It doesn’t surprise me in the least how popular religion is. More people than you’d like to think believe in healing crystals, “auras,” and the like and think they are different than religion. Superstition or tribalism instead of science still reigns supreme
