For example look at the Catholic bullshit at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purgatory#Catholicism. There is heaven and hell, purgatory, sin, prayer for the dead and indulgences.
The Catholic Church teaches that the fate of those in purgatory can be affected by the actions of the living. Its teaching is based also on the practice of prayer for the dead mentioned as far back as 2 Maccabees 12:42–46, considered by Catholics and Orthodox to be part of Sacred Scripture.[43
Somebody made that bullshit up. Theologians make a living from writing about bullshit invented by other theologians. It's all bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.
Other cults have the same problem. It's all bullshit.
It all started with the god fantasy. After a population becomes stupid enough to believe in a magical master of the entire universe, then all other bullshit becomes possible. They are only limited by how much bullshit they can imagine.
All theists and agnostics are insane. If they want to recover from their mental illness, first they have to admit they have a serious problem. Unfortunately there is a huge industry that depends on gullible morons staying stupid. Then of course there's the child abuse called religious indoctrination.
The solution? I'm not sure but I suggest a good place to start would be to hunt down and kill every priest, preacher, cleric, rabbi, and theologian until these worthless scum are completely eradicated.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
