   YES - I KICKED RELIGION OUT OF MY LIFE; I DON’T NEED IT

   “Break the chains of mental slavery to religious superstition. Arise and become a free and independent human being. Dignify yourself as a Man and justify your living by being a Brother of All Mankind and a citizen of the Universe.” –Joseph Lewis (1889-1968).

     
   Years ago, while living in Southern California, I became acquainted with a piano-tuner, a fellow associated with Jehova Witnesses. One day he told me that the Catholic church manufactures Atheists as well as General Motors manufactures cars; and I immediately raised my hand presenting myself as a genuine example of a good product from the Catholic church’s “assembling line.”
   Son of a Catholic-fanatic mother, that many times during my childhood woke me in the middle of the night to pray, because I didn’t pray before retiring, I clearly remember one evening when we had a passionate prayer-session and upon getting in bed I had a most terrifying dream in which Satan stopped in our ranch for a brief visit. He presented himself barefoot, resembling a low-stature bulky man, with the largest and boldest feet I had never seen or heard of. Then, with my brother, I started whispering and finger-pointing his awkward feet. Unhappy, the undesirable visitor screamed: “I hate places with those dumb kids!”– and punching fists in the air, exploded forming a dark smoky cloud, and disappeared.
   Frightened, I couldn’t sleep well for the rest of the night. Still frightened in the morning, I rushed to my mother to tell her about that scaring dream, but before I finish details, she gave me a punch while calling me a liar. At that time I was around six and a half years old and since then I could never believe in effectiveness of “foolish” prayers, and by observing the continued triumph of misleading preaching, business and teachings of religious institutions, without any regrets or apology, I kicked religion out of my life and abandoned Christianity. The stage where religion plays its roles is located between Hell and Heaven–both invented by ancient fanatics–and supported by two strong pillars: “superstition” and “intimidation”.
   The novelist Ernest Hemingway wrote somewhere: “All thinking men are Atheists”; and I support Hemingway’s words since the time I found a right spot among that brilliant group of men and women who independently think by themselves, make their own decisions and never rely on fictitious deities to guide their lives and conduct their personal affairs.
   The bible–the most revered guide-book of Christianity faith–is a macabre black-book talking too much about “blood” and “destruction” of human beings. Blood is a frightening substance nobody wants to see around, while the destruction of human beings is more tragic than the tragedy itself. If someone dares to place one of those black books under a heavy press and click the electric switch, surely will see blood running from its pages. Also, in that “sacred” black book anyone can read and count the absurd number of human beings killed. While Satan killed 10 people, Jehova and his followers killed over 2,000,000; not counting since that time all the victims of natural disasters as floods, volcano, hungry, storms, tsunamis, etc. Who rules all those deaths by natural disasters; Satan or Jehovah? If the ruler is Jehova, why he kills of those people? Because they do wrong things? Because they are sinners? Well, if he is so friendly, benevolent and powerful as Christians say, why instead of killing or destroying those people doesn’t he approach them and influence their minds so they can change their personal behavior becoming thus “sin-free” individuals? The truth is that the fantastic tales preached in religion have, throughout centuries, deceived millions through powerful brainwashing, making them weak, vulnerable and unable to think and reason by themselves. Those weak-minded people are guided by exterior emotions; not by their own thinking.
   Still in the bible, on Psalm 14.1, we read: “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.” However, a list containing names of hundreds of men and women Atheists–who did and do for the human race what none of those “famous” theologians ever did or do–would include names as Thomas Alva Edison, Albert Einstein, Marie Curie, Charles Darwin, Andrew Carnegie, Walter Disney, Benjamin Franklin, George Bernard Shaw, Denis Diderot, Charles Schultz, Carl Sagan, Sigmund Freud, Friedrich Nietzsche, Voltaire, Bill Gates, Irving Berlin, Marilyn Manson, Frank Lloyd Wright… and many, many, many others who, by their enthusiastic contributions left or will leave the world better than they found it. But in spite of their dedication to humanity, irreverently, the bible classifies them as “fools” and “corrupts.”
   Since early age, we are pushed into religious dogmas but later on, by observing and reasoning, a great part of us discovers all the false tricks and fallacies that characterize the real nature of religion which seems to be so enigmatic that most people, unable to understand, accept it exactly as it is addressed.
   The way so many intellectual people are deliberately driven and deceived by a bunch of religious donkeys makes me strongly believe that those donkeys hide among themselves an arcane top-secret which audaciously and unsuccessfully have tried to challenge even the modern sciences of our technological times.

   All people deserve wealthy life and loan or sba loan would make it better. Just because people’s freedom bases on money state.
