I don't expect you to accept these assertions at first glance, of course. In a series of podcasts on superstition, I use reason and evidence to establish, prove and back up each one of these claims.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.freedomainradio.com/religion.html"><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Religion is no different from any other superstition.</LI>
		<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Religion is as destructive as any other child-indoctrinating cult.</LI>
		<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Telling children that sky-ghosts exist, are always watching and judging them, and will send them to hell for disobedience, is child abuse.</LI>

		<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">By any objective moral standard, the fictional deity of the Old Testament is stone evil - genocidal, vain, vindictive and vengeful.</LI>
		<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">The Bible approves the following actions as the highest moral values:
			<UL>
				<li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Genocide</LI>
