The Human Psyche Has Two Great Sicknesses: The Urge To Carry Vendetta Across Generations, And The Tendency To Fasten Group Labels On People Rather Than See Them As Individuals. Abrahamic Religion Gives Strong Sanction To Both-and Mixes Explosively With Both.

Faith Is One Of The World's Great Evils, Comparable To The Smallpox Virus But Harder To Eradicate.
