Chapter 19

Controversy around religion

Many atheists fight religions by claiming that they are human delusions or the way of clergymen of various religions to subjugate people through the so-called government of souls. At the same time, from the point of view of religion, we often deal with fanaticism and intolerance towards unbelievers or otherwise believers, which sometimes resulted in religious crimes. The history of mankind has recorded criminal rituals, slaughter, wars, inquisition and gross violations of human dignity. It also happened that the legislation of many countries, in which the authorities supported only one religious option, was behind religious persecution.

Of course, the history of mankind has also recorded many positive initiatives to implement the proper mission of religion. There were, and probably still are, who treat religion as a manifestation of love for all people, especially for those who suffer from evil. It was these religious initiatives that tried to give people hope for the possibility of renewing our world, which lacks love, goodness and guarantees for a better tomorrow. The teaching of Jesus Christ, which is pure, beautiful and even perfect, is especially inscribed in the history of the world. Unfortunately, it is much worse with its implementation over the next generations.

The fundamental question about the meaning of the existence of religion requires a deliberate answer. Therefore, my system sheds light on the existence of religion objectively by taking a scientific approach to the subject. That is the purpose of this book.
