      I am against all organised religion, but I think that we should all fear the authoritarian oppression of the state far more than any religion.

      It’s a bit like the death penalty - I oppose the death penalty not because I think that there aren’t people who we would all be better off if they weren’t alive, but because we cannot trust the state with that power.
