No faith required. All you need here is the faculty for reason. No pretending to know something one can not possibly know. No certainty of conviction here. Just scientific inquiry and debate, and no need to thank God for that.

Religious Antidote
Hello, All!
So, here I am, the Religious Antidote. Or, at least, I hope I have something of the kind in my pocket for you to flush in to your veins. If not, then perhaps I might just cause you to pause for thought a few times, which is the very least I can hope for.
I hate religion. Not just dislike, but hate. I hate religion because of the way it poisons everything man touches. The way it displaces rational thought like oil poured in to water. The way it maims and kills. The way it indoctrinates the young when they are impressionable. The way it discriminates and divides.
As Nietzsche wrote in Twilight Of The Idols, ""Is man only a blunder of God? Or is God only a blunder of man?".
I believe the answer is the latter.
