I am not saying religion is bad.
When it turns men and women inward and helps them realize that they are great... that there is an ocean of love and silence deep within the heart, then it is useful.
But where it divides people against one another, where one person is led to believe that he is saved and another is damned, or where it leads a person to believe that true happiness will be found only in an afterlife, then it is harmful.
Each life on Earth is very precious.
It is a wonderful thing to be alive.
