without a doubt. When I finally broke the final tie to religion, I was able to lok at my life and all life so much more clearly. I let go of so many needs and accepted what is,

100% yes.

If you ALLOW yourself to be pulled into the bullshit and be brainwashed to the point that you NEVER question or doubt or have no desire to learn or to even explore anything else, and i've seen MANY in the shit THIS deep, then.....DUH !!!!!!

I live amongst some of the most religious peopel I have ever known who drink like fish are the 4th in the Country charts for Obesity and seem if my Gossip Mill is in any way correct to have very many relationships on the side as well as abuse.
Apparently being with one man for 25years without resorting to other abandonments is not even noteworthy if youre not Protestant or Catholic

No it's a brain washed tool by Christianity

In the sense that people are murdered by religious zealots and robbed of their lives altogether, certainly.

In the less extreme sense that fundamentalist religious beliefs prohibit entire areas of scientific research and thought, simply because they conflict with dogma, then again, yes. I have read quotes from former scientists (now "creation scientists" if there is such a thing) who turned their backs on real science because they couldn't resolve the conflict between evidence and religious mythology.

And when religion tells you who you can or can't marry, what you can or can't eat, even what you can or can't wear...

Is there any question?

Not necessarily. Some people keep their spiritual beliefs for Sunday and go about the rest of the week secularily. Codes of behavior are drawn from Monday - Saturday more than Sunday. Anyone who shows up with a different code that doesn't comply can take a hike, even if they are wearing a cross.
