Fact is, religion is, always was and always will be delusion...
That "fact" is an opinion...
...If you think otherwise, it's your responsibility to provide real proof that there is in fact a god.

Religion is believing in something that not only has absolutely no evidence to support it, but is contradicted by historical and archaeological fact. What's that if not delusion?
FF your "Contact" DVD to the conversation beginning ~74 minutes: Arroway: "So, what's more likely, an all powerful mysterious God created the universe and then decided not to provide proof of his existence, or, that He simply doesn't exist at all, and that we created Him so that we wouldn't have to feel so small and alone." Joss: "I don't know. I couldn't imagine living in a world where God didn't exist. I wouldn't want to." Arroway: "How do you know you're not deluding yourself? I mean, for me, I'd need proof." Joss: "Proof...Did you love your father?" Arroway: "What?" Joss: "Your dad, did you love him?" Arroway: "Yes, very much." Joss: "Prove it." -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
