Interview Video | Richard Dawkins on Why Campaign Against Religion
I think Richard Dawkins hit the nail on the head, so to say, when he said that people should be left alone to practice their religion, but the thing about it is they don’t leave the rest of us alone.
On those lines alone, I think Dawkins has my vote. (Vote for what, I’m not sure, but he has it.) It’s not religion in itself that is annoying and troublesome; it is what people do in the name of religion.
So if you ever wonder why people have a problem with religion – perhaps your religion? – take a look at what people do in the name of their religions.

I used to say I had nothing against religion; I only had something against the religious maniacs who commit hate crimes and the like. I’ve changed my mind. Religion itself is evil, albeit unintentionally. Religion teaches people to close their minds to truth, and tells them that they don’t need to do anything to make the world better; because god will do that. I want to see every church torn apart brick by brick before I die, as unrealistic as that desire may be.
