Religion isn't the opium of the people, it's the hypocrisy.

About This Quote

Religion is opium to the people. Religion is just a convenient tool for people to have an excuse to do what they want to do, whether it's good or bad. They don't need religion when they are young because they're young and ignorant, but when they grow up they need religion so that they can feel better about their wrongdoing.
