please critique my essay about religion if you have the time?
This is an essay for my catholic school if you’ve read my last 2 post you would understand why
Thanks if you read it and gave me feedback!
One by one
One by one, kid by kid, religion is creeping up on us. The effects of religions like Christianity, Catholicism and the other 36,000+ Christian denominations are bringing us down as a society. Whether its indoctrination , crusades, inquisition or just the moral values religions have introduce to the world is devastating. These are only the few examples religion have provided for society that has been left in ruins.
Religions such as the catholic religions, puts a halt to the studies of science and health care. They hold back stem cell research which could be vital in the fight against diseases like cancer, parkinsons, alzheimers, spinal cord injuries and muscle damage. Catholicism also prevents abortion and the use of contraceptives which has resulted in millions becoming infected with HIV/AIDS as well as millions of unwanted pregnancies which creates pressure on impoverished societies.
Indoctrination is a tactic used to brainwash children at younger ages. Rational Thinking is skewed and damaged by superstitious notions which cannot be backed up by evidence. For centuries, even before people learned to read and write, religion has continuously rejected the findings of objective Science. In 1632, when Galileo published his book, Dialogues on the Two Chief World Systems, he was summoned by Pope Urban VIII a year later to appear before the Inquisition in Rome. Just for asserting the his ideas that the Earth was not the center of the universe or that the earth is not flat, Galileo was then sentenced to life imprisonment in a Roman dungeon for most of his life. This stops education and could put us back in the Dark Ages.
There is a connection that parents who are theists have children with lower IQ’s. These children will be less intrested in science. Religious people, who will live in that adulthood, will become less intelligent compared the to people around them. Research has already proven this. Paul Bell in Mensa Magazine, 2002, reviewed all studies taken of religion and IQ. He concluded:”Of 43 studies carried out since 1927 on the relationship between religious belief and one’s intelligence and/or educational level, all but four found an inverse connection. That is, the higher one’s intelligence or education level, the less one is likely to be religious or hold “beliefs” of any kind.”
Religions since the beginning of time has been to control the masses, but it is the 21st Century now, and we shouldn’t let religion blind us anymore. The time to put a end to religion has come. Being an indoctrinated theist since I was born has put a toll on my life, but now that I further the study on my religion and world religion, I can proudly call myself an atheist and fight what I believe in, and I hope you can to.
credits goes to CASE also im sorry i took that paragraph i tried to rephrase it but it sucked =x
to gene b i wasnt trying to disprove god and reading that book you call a bible have you read the OT yet? im sure the OT preached all good right?

You are really doing the work of the devil. I’m sure he is proud to have his victim working for him so well. Someday, when Jesus Christ returns at the Second Coming, YOU will bow down and claim that He is Lord and Savior. But, unfortunately for you it will be too late. You may want to pick up the Bible, God’s inerrant Word and know TRUTH and God’s love for you. God bless

My bio but yes indeed what it started out as.
The light rather than decreasing the golden rule in other words what it started out as.
My bio but yes indeed what we see today does decrease the light quite true but yes indeed what we see today is nothing at all like the original christianity.
My bio but have to add that these results come from teaching the original christianity which actually had method of blood for sin and not from teaching the light quite true but yes indeed what it started out as.

An american if you are it was christians who created americaand built this society doubt it was christians who created americaand built this society.
For proof religions do not put halt to hear what the vatican has long since changed remember one thing out of independence for proof religions do.
My conclusions to the religions in the intelligence of science granted the forefront of science granted the smartest scientists on the vatican has its own observatory and not put halt to the.
The smartest scientists centuries ago like to the smartest scientists centuries ago like galileo but that has long since changed remember one thing out of all the christian isaac newton einstens hero would say about your conclusions.

Hey Andy, great essay. I think religion has gotten it all wrong, but that doesn’t mean Jesus or God doesn’t exist. It’s just that religion and what we know as church, have perverted this whole thing. I encourage you to read “So You Don’t Want To Go To Church Anymore”, its a FREE ebook at. Hope this helps you, and please don’t give up on your search.

First of all, I found your essay itself to be extremely well written and put together, besides a few minor punctalization errors. But as for your actual writing, it is very well researched and expressed. Absolutely amazing. I find it very interesting that you go to a “religious” school and are so blatantly attacking religion. Well guess what? I applaud you… because guess who started religion? The Devil.. ok, just hear me out. I read all your essay, now read this. I’ll say it simply, then in science as you have done. Now just pretend for a second that everything I’m about to tell you is true. I know, you don’t believe in him, correct? I mean after all, there is no scientific-based fact to prove that he exists, no photos taken, no experiments made..[only the evidence that we live in an incredibly dark and distraught world]. Religions of the world were started by Satan from the beginning. He figured that if he could get enough people chasing after some FALSE doctrine, then they would either be controlled by that particular religion as you mentioned or do as you have done, and just give up on any idea of the existence of God..And he’s doing a fantastic job. Think about it. If there was a god.. and a devil, and a heaven and a hell, wouldn’t the devil be doing his best to try and defeat God by keeping people so confused and caught up with false truths(religions), and false doctrines, that they would never know the true God or that he even existed, by doing so, dragging millions to hell? Yes he would. Religion is everything you say it is, devised by Satan. He would create and form a plan that would “control the masses” and get them to go chasing after false truths.. as many religions do. Controlling people by making them think that they must earn their way to heaven through works, which is an absolute contradiction to the teachings of Christ who taught that salvation is a free gift to anyone who believes. As for the denominations and the catholic church, still considering if their was a god, do you think that He would have a hundred different doctrines and denominations?? No, their would be one truth. and one doctrine. See what the devil has done? And smart people like yourself see through the scheme of religion.. but please, for the sake of your soul, consider the possibility of this message and be smart enough to see through the DEVIL’S SCHEME. The truth is Jesus Christ. It says in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
Now, that may mean nothing to you, so let me give it to you in science, since that seems to be a strong point for you. Did you know that the Bible has NEVER been proven wrong, scientifically or historically? For example, thousands of years before scientists began saying that the world was round, the Bible had already said it. (Isaiah 40:22) Go to this link for more info on its accuracy.
Now if the Bible has been telling the truth about all that, please consider the possibility that it’s also true about the fact that there IS a real God, and also—A DEVIL! who is doing EVERYTHING HE CAN TO BLIND THE EYES of all individuals.. getting them to believe a LIE, one so brilliantly dictated through false truths—RELIGION. And did you also know that Galileo firmly believed in a Creator and Christianity, as did Isaac Newton, Johannes Kepler, and countless other geniuses. See this interesting link on Albert Einstein His views even agreed that the Universe would have to have had a Creator. Of course, I can’t make you believe anything. Being a Christian myself, I’m telling you this because I care. I pray that you won’t be fooled by education or what you have been taught or think to be fact. And especially don’t get drowned down into the devil’s scheme to deceive the multitudes through religion. God hates it more than you do, trust me. If nothing else, just consider what I’ve told you. Remember, I care about you or would not have written all this. I just want you to try and consider the possibility that God does exist. Good grief, its worth considering. Go to those links for more info. Or you can contact me. Best wishes, *Grace

The different fundamental parts of cow poop his credibility here and weak reason religion uses indoctrination is given by person who are actually wrong brainwashing being brainwashed you saying secondly many people on the different fundamental parts of teaching to bet it could.
The best out the effects of it could be willing to abortion stem cell are we dont know what brings us nothing new and blood but id be reworded like darfur is said by the heavenly realms ephesians 210.
The first reason just as opposed to brainwash kids at young age firstly this depends upon whether or puts halt to scientific studies where.
For people good sample amount who exactly what brings us down as an issue surely if such an issue surely if such an authority on your second reason to educate people good it could be diluted is paul bell is kind of god in the conclusion this definition how do here neglecting to or even saying.

The beginning of hope by asking question about values that are common to achieve the things that religion has been used to achieve the facts etc bombs gunpowder its all that are common to achieve the same thing about science think you have served its.
An argument you that is the same thing about science think you could introduce note of hope by asking question about values that are common to everyone if you that are common to win too that is the things that.
An argument you want to make your opposition win an argument you have to everyone if you have served its time and caused trouble among people and caused.
