Those who can understand it for themselves, like myself, often refute its archaic claims, because of its insanity.
Please show us where someone has misused it and how you are backing up that it was misused.

"The mind has no limits, only religion does."

"Men never commit evil so fully and joyfuly as when they do it for religious convictions" -Blaise Pascal
