25. How come
people of a religion CANNOT and WILL NOT keep it to themselves? Why do they broadcast advertise and sell it?

Converting the world is nothing but bullying and coercion. In the dark ages it was convert or die.

Religion sucks

Why should we spend a lifetime worrying about after death,there's enough hell right here right now going on and the religious act all confused about it because these jackasses in power wave the christian card.

Time for religion to take a back seat to real ethical human conduct.Either you are ethical or not as in a sociopath a narcissist or authoritarian persona..If you are any combo of those three nasty personality problems you are morally handicapped by your personality flaws and no religion will make you become a decent person even though narcissists authoritarians and sociopaths really believe nothing is wrong with them ever..These flawed personalities cannot feel shame guilt or remorse when they hurt others abuse trust or violate others consent, nor can they introspect.So they are morally inferior to anyone with a conscience who is NOT a narcissist,authoritarian or sociopath personality.And you don't need religion to have a conscience.You need a conscience to live and let live with others in a way that promotes peace and a heart to feel why hurting others is wrong, and you gotta care for someione besides yourself or'winning' to care about others difgfferent from yourself and desire to stop their suffering.
