    Take from that what you will.

    The only things anyone with a brain can take from it is that religion is a cancer, masquerading as a source of strength and hope when it in fact supresses those qualities, leading to an alienated population.

      Opium is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of the heartless world, the soul of soulless conditions.

      The answer to this by you is: Ban opium!

      My answer would be: Fight oppression!

      The fight is not about drugs, it is about self-determination, dignity, freedom. It is the fight against capitalism. And today the search is on how to prevent the socialist society from turning into an autocracy.

      Children have questions, e.g.: Where is grandma now? Until we have a satisfactory answer to this, religion will exist. But in a free world it will no longer be addictive.

      And everyone can put on or take off whatever they want. We should start with this immediately.

        False dichotomy, you can do both, and in fact by doing both strengthen both positions.
