Religion, oh religion! You are such a contrarian. On the one hand, you have given us Mohatma Gandi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Desmond Tutu, and Mother Theresa, all of whom have arguably done their best to make the world a better place for all of us. On the other hand, you have also given us Joseph Smith, Mary Baker Eddy, Jerry Fallwell, Pope Benedict XVI, and many more who have sought to destroy the rights of others in the name of religious liberty. I now wash my hands of you, for your filth outweighs your good (as if that never was true), and your stench is way too narrow and stifling for the call of freedom.
