This is true....many of the rules do have a basis in reality. I like the morals that religions teach. But many of the rules are either flat out wrong or have no basis in today’s society. I also don't like how many religions promote intolerance of others beliefs by saying that if you don't believe our way then you are going to hell. These breeds hate and I don't like it. I like the basis of a lot of religions I just don't like the execution. Personally I don’t think that religion (the way they are today) is the best way to teach morals…but it’s just my opinion.
