About This Quote
Many of the beliefs of organized religion, especially Christianity, are not necessarily based on empirical data but rather on fear. Religion is more interested in protecting its own existence than it is in protecting the rights of its followers. Organized religion believes that it has the power to protect itself from the rest of the world, but only if it acts in a certain way. Religion is simply a set of rules that are meant to ensure that organized religion will continue to exist.
