Penitents

Some believe that if religions did not exist, or were residual phenomena, humanity would fare better. In my own small way, I too suspect that religions are an obstacle to human development.

I certainly won’t see a world without organised religions, and I find it hard to even imagine: no shamans, priests, archpriests, bishops, archbishops, cardinals, patriarchs, presbyters, deacons, pastors, preachers, monks, lamas, rabbis, Brahmins, gurus, ayatollahs… That doesn’t sound too bad.
