A comment on “Become Abnormal”: traits to cultivate for top performance. Parent comment
I'm often critical of religion myself, and find it all a bit baffling to be honest, but I feel like you've really misread believers here.
Surely the point of religion is not to compete with the divine, but to humble yourself in obeisance to it?
One example: "Islam means submission".
OK, so there are televangelists and muscular Christianity and so on, but they make up a small part, don't they?
