Memoir of Departure - Note II

Religion is something very personal; no one has the right to impose his religious beliefs and practices on others. When a group of people try to collectively impose their own views of religion, they create FALSE religious societies whose members practise religion only on the surface to satisfy the religious authorities. Beneath their false practices and hypocrisy, they are more likely to behave differently. Those forcing 'religiousness' do it to manipulate people and they propagate their associations with 'God' to force us to obey. History of humanity tells us it works well with ignorant masses who hardly know about religion and who count on others, sheikhs be or priests, to tell them what to do. Truly said by Karl Marx : "Die Religion ist das Opium des Volkes" , 'religion is the opium of the masses' = the Egyptian case!
