Could be or couldn’t be. We could give numerous theories and everything would be right from certain perspectives. The thing is none can be proved as God isnt an Emperical Concept. I have this theory- Religion was Psychology in its infancy. Imagine every psychosomatic disease of the ancient times, that didnt have a drug/herb to cure. Surely then there is a need for an entity “God” that if you had faith in would cure…

Then there are nuts like me who contend the portraying of Jesus as religious authority is odd : his alleged record is that of a scoffer whose death showed the hypocrisy of ‘organized’ religion – preaching love and acting murder.
Actually, I had just been at http://dad2059.wordpress.com/ kibitzing about UFOs and much more : in a fashion with some similarity to what you have here.

Good to see you back on my site too Subhabrata,

You are right,
its those who are scared who cannot question religion.
Russell was a brave person to have said that back in 1927.

There of course are the opportunists who will use “religion” for individual or collective gains.

feels great to see the vintage littleindian back.
the society will always have variations, and hence religious chauvinists will always exist. what we’ve gotta do is never let them run the show, that’s it. today people are educated enough to understand what’s right and what’s wrong. they cannot follow follow the truth because they lack in willpower or are too scared of the initial repercussions around them.
