Religion is the scourge of humanity. Just think of all the people who kill one another in the name of their own version of Almighty God. It is time for us finally to start acting rationally and kindly to one another! Never again will religion be allowed to pollute the minds of our children in an age of scientific objectivity.

d. Religion pollutes the minds of children.
e. Religious people are ignorant throwbacks to an age of unenlightenment.
