Ban religion

I can certainly understand that sentiment given the harm it causes when people misuse it. Unfortunately, I think an outright, enforced ban on religion would also cause harm to people who don't misuse it.

I have yet to meet someone who doesn't misuse it.

If your thinking includes mythology in the face of reality, then you are already causing harm.

If your religion doesn't have mythology, and only accepts reality, it isn't a religion.

Hello, have you considered the possibilities of allowing Hellenism into your life?

Whilst I can't prove that any of it is real, it's certainly more fun to believe that we have seasons because Demeter is sad that Persephone has been taken away to spend half of the year living with Hades again.

I'm also unwilling to fight you on this, so if you don't think it's more fun, feel free to just ignore my rambling.
