+75 Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful, amirite?

So I am common for believing something, and you are wise for believing nothing? Skeptic of all, victim of none. That's being safe, not necessarily wise. And what is Wisdom? insight about life. What is religion? Insight about life from a figure of authority. It is wise to not listen to other wise figures, one of which may possibly be The God? The God who created us and knows us better than we know ourselves? Ignoring THAT is wisdom?

Not [completely] succumbing to blind faith is wisdom. all with moderation, and an attempt to make sense of all that is in some degree: intangible
