My views are pretty much what they have always been though I find I articulate it better these days. Religion is the mob spirit writ large and the dividing walls that we erect between us and those we fear to open our real selves to. It is a pitiful thing that seperates people from the realization of the common ground we all partake of which is our simple shared humanity.
I think the Gods of men are the reflection of men's fears and egos and as such too petty and inadequate to be a serious notion to explain the world we exist in. It is far more reasonable to assume that men would write of Gods that are a mirror image of themselves than that an invisible, immaterial yet all knowing and all powerful entity actually exists.

Dear Mrs Chown, Ignore your son's attempts to teach you physics. Physics isn't the most important thing. Love is.
Best wishes, Richard Feynman.
