Description: This video is dedicated to those recovering from religion. You can support the channel at: patreon.com/TheraminTrees -- For those affected, try this site: recoveringfromreligion.org -- opening quote: Oh wearisome Condition of Humanity! Born under one law, to another bound: Vainly begot and yet forbidden vanity, Created sick, commanded to be sound: What meaneth Nature by these diverse laws? Passion and reason, self-division cause. Is it the mark, or Majesty of Power To make offences that it may forgive? —Fulke Greville, from ‘Mustapha’ end quote: When my eternal happiness is involved, have I not the right to examine God’s own conduct? A despot to whom men are subjected but through fear, a master whom they can not interrogate, a totally inaccessible sovereign, can not merit the homage of intelligent beings. —‘Superstition in All Ages’ (1732) attributed to Jean Meslier and Baron d’Holbach -- subtitles Bulgarian: Djeitko Slovak: Peter Ščigulinský -- references Asimov, I.
