"Death with Interruptions"

Religious gurus are managing their businesses by misleading the world, but
it is a smaller crime. Their greater crime is; not only are they suppressing the
qualities and philosophies of great people, but are also running their businesses
by linking them to useless miracles.
-Deep Trivedi

The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.
