As I see it, religion for the most part is a means of social control hiding in the guise of religious leaders set of morals.

What is unfortunate is that those very morals used by the religious leaders also guide the direction of the governments laws. This is how they control society.

You can see this in every religion throughout the world and in every country throughout the world as well throughout all of history.

So is religion out dated? A better question is just how the heck can religion be separated from government and the governments laws and the very documents that form those governments.

Then figure out what really is a just means of morals to be used to form governments and those governments laws.

So, as I have said so many times before, whose morals should be used?
