Tools to overcome religion.

Of the intellectual tools, philosophy and science , science is the best because its processes are simpler and any person can be improved to use it wisely, whereas one would have to study so many philosophers and difficult concepts to make it impossible for mass conversions.

Of the everyday discourse tools, debate and discussion, discussion is best because it does not drive the arguments into two opposing camps. Discussion allows more people to learn the relative importance of a multitude of factors.

Of the human tools that are helpful to both the religious and non religious , all of these help both camps ….. Kindness, forgiveness, justice, tolerance, empathy, logic, reason. Can you think of any more?
