Are we? Why then are so many wars being faught all over the world? Why are powerhungry nations crushing the weak ones to eliminate competition? When people will love neighbours as themselves, this, here, will be heaven. That, my dear Hank, we have not achieved.

Sticking ones ass up in the air five times a day chanting GOD GOD GOD does not seem to make one a particularly constructive citizen doing a heck of a lot of good for people in need.

Are you talking about the followers of Mohammed?
[They kneel collectively in a similar manner]
Let them practice their custom.
Jesuits[cross their chests],
Jews & Cabalists [shake their heads in a funny way ]
Buddhists & Hindus [Sit in curious postures while praying]
All of them have some unique peculiarity.

If any practice or belief can purify the mind, then it is fair enough. If our religion helps us become better and kind human beings, then it is a true religion. But those institutions that pretend to propagate the religion, often take undue advantage and defame it. I think all established religions are good and pure at the core. Its the enforcers of those religions, who are impure in their intentions.

And going against the advice of using condoms in Africa to prevent disease is down right diabolic - it's SO NOT Jesus Christ!

Is such a Big Joke possible in this age of science? Golly!
