Religion is the opium of mankind
by Yazed Khan on Dec 06, 2007 04:31 PM

Religions have turned out to be opium for the mankind. No proved evidence as to which is better than what. But the essence of the religion lies in identifying a person, his/her caste or creed, ancestral roots and moreover influence the human like nature in him/her. As we might know, homo sapiens came in Ice age, which proved the falsehood of the demanding archaeologists propounding the existence of mankind only 700000 B.C. The human beings actually came in to being through evolution only from a kind of "killer ape" on the bank of Vistula river and around. That's why human beings are very much prone to having envious nature, killer instinct, brutality and other non-human qualities. The DNA of the mankind conforms to all these charactersitics which were very much actively evident in the Killer Apes. Religions came much later and really poses one one question: Which one is true...Do we have sufficient facility to judge the same neutrally?
