Before organised religion – I suggest that if you did a good thing you knew it was good because the act made you feel good about doing it. And if you did a bad thing you knew it was bad because it made you feel bad about doing it.

With new improved organised religion – I suggest you can do something that makes you feel good and therefore a good thing and be made to feel bad about it. And you can do something that makes you feel bad and therefore a bad thing and be made to feel good about it.

The bad feeling that you get when you do something bad does not tend go away when your organised religion try to make you feel good about it. It simply increases the guilt that we already feel. It is organised religion that has made this guilt into the harmful growth industry that is now in evidence all around the world.
