Religion is Child Abuse

If anything else, Religion is a subtle form of child abuse: Not only does it keep children closeted (mentally, physically or both) within their community, hence promoting sectarianism, it instills a child with the unnecessary dread of eternal condemnation and evokes a sense of piety and irrationality that renders them susceptible to all kinds of hucksters and fraudsters who wear the veil of religion to deceive the gullible masses. Children, being born with an instinct to copy and learn from their parents and adults, are more apt to be indoctrinated and in the case of terrorist organizations, children are the best candidates for self-strapped suicide bombers: They are more inclined to obey, and are less inclined to be rational if they are trained to be pious and execute orders without question.

It is important that as parents, adults should impart the right skills and knowledge to their kids. Telling children that they are no better than the irks and criminals who deserve to be burning in eternal abyss is just what it always has been - child abuse.

Hey everybody, I am Sam; a software engineer, a hobbyist photographer, and many other things in between.

I am very open-minded and like to explore different ideas and concepts. Photographic art is very important to me; it is amazing how a photo can completely change my mood.

I would describe myself as impulsive and whimsical, and I like it that way. Sometimes decisions need to be made quickly, and I tend to make them quicker than most! You would say I am zany, colourful, and just generally good fun to be with... as long as someone isn't relying too much on me to get some work done :)
