Ban All Religion!

No one is seriously wanting to ban religion. The very idea is thought control. This is a little bit of fun from a great Australian TV show called "The Gruen Transfer".

"The Gruen Transfer" examines the strategies used in advertising in a humorous way. The term describes that split second when the mall's intentionally confusing layout makes our eyes glaze and our jaws slacken... the moment when we forget what we came for and become impulse buyers.

This segment is a look at how agencies might sell something which is difficult or impossible. It's all done for a bit of a laugh while learning something along the way.

Ban religion? religion isn't the problem, you all are, hitler, stalin, chinese communist leader, korean leader are atheists and look how many people they killed millions. (hitler used christianity as a disguise to subdue the germans to vote for him, he burnt bibles and killed real christians)

[askegg]

@darkaus32 What Hitler personally believed is irrelevant. He used the language of Christians to convince Christians to murder millions of people. That should tell you something.

No one is seriously wanting to ban "religion"? I know a *LOT* of people who'd welcome a ban on superstitions!

They aren't any good.

But "forbid" them isn't THE idea either. People just should face reality and get rid of bronze age or medieval superstitions.

[askegg]

@kenninast No, they are not serious. The program charges advertising agencies with difficult tasks - this was one of them.

@darkaus32 religion was invented to control the masses of people.it still is used today to put fear of the unknown into people.it is a cancer of the brain.todays christianity will be tomorrows mythology. all religions and gods die and turn to myths.this is the age of science and reason not fantasy and blind faith with no proof of gods.

Religious people, this is 2012. You're acceptable to society as long as you keep outrageous, harmful beliefs out of western politics and people's livelihood. Otherwise, by now, if you don't consider yourself an atheist or an agnostic and believe that countries should be ran according to a 2,000 year old desert rule book -- you belong beneath the infancy of the human species, and slapping you with limits and silence is warranted.

If you wish to get rid of the Christian religion go speak to its author, his imaginary friends and all His followers ,you may not like your outcome but at least die trying,He did

@kenninast YOUR FUCKING RETARDED religion is retarded u should listen to this show u fucking religous people are a disgrace to the human race.

[soloeinhander]

Yea!!!!!!!

[EVERYVERSER]

"he burnt bibles" (citation needed) "and killed real Christians" (implying that the millions of Christians who followed him weren't "real"). he killed dissidents regardless of religion, for being dissidents.

And Ive never heard of him burning bibles, although "origin of species" was certainly included in his black list.

if his followers weren't real Christians, then we can claim that Stalin and Mao weren't real atheists. and that fascism and communism aren't compatible w/ true atheism.

@MrEnlightenup - Amen brother!
