Destroying people belief?

[alex85]

Church is a anachronic institution this days.It may have been useful in the Dark Ages when the state and law enforcement were weak and the church and it's doctrine were the means to keep the mobs quiet and submissive with promises of afterlife, poor ppl that otherwise would have rebelled against the social injustices.
Unfortunately there are still some who find it easier to think there's a superior being that controls everything, good and bad, that rewards and punish you, and if you fail with something you can say that it wasn't meant to be, god didn't want that etc. - that's a consoling thought - and exactly the role that organized religion fulfills.
