thought of the day.22

Most Toxic Ideas of All Time

1. God has revealed his will to humans.

2. Humans are to rule over the earth.

3. Men are to rule over women.

4. Men may buy and sell humans.

5. Unbelievers will be tortured forever.

These biblical ideas resulted in two millennia of divinely justified torture, rape, murder, war, genocide, oppression, slavery, inequality, battering of wives, sexual abuse, inhumane treatment of animals, pollution, environmental destruction, burning of books, destruction and theft of property, manipulation through fear and guilt and lies, and on and on.
