SATCHMO Spouts About Science, Life, and Isms: Another Goddamn Religion Thread

Before I engage you on this topic Satchmo, you must do two things for me.

-You must clarify more clearly what you mean by "the positive aspects of religion". Eager curiosity? Psychology of the religious experience? What do you actually mean when you reference these things?

-You must present an argument for why it is desirable to pursue these "positive aspects" I just asked you to clarify. Why should I spend time dredging up a counter-argument to an argument that has not been made? Simply saying that religion can bring positive things to the human experience is not enough.
