Gods are fairy tales, a comfort blanket and always will be. If the existence of such forces could be proved - that would have been done so by now. That’s why I get so frustrated by the expected tolerance of many religious practices that are harmful - simply to pacify emotional people. It is wrong in my opinion. People can believe in what they like but should never have the right to enforce it on others or others be expected to accept.

I don't agree with the use of 'emotional people' the truth is they are tolerated to pacify powerful people.
Religion is big business.
