Religion poisons everything?

Not every religious expression is destructive or evil- far from it.

Tell that to the legions of believers whose faith motivates them to to spend a lifetime doing good works.

There are Christian, Muslim, Jewish and Hindu organizations for example, that are dedicated to improving the lives of others.

Hardly poison.

Faith based good works don’t make the six o’clock news but they are an integral part of our world.

Yes everything, it poisoned this fellow’s life because he has spent a large portion of his life feeling guilty over something that may be inconsequential.

Since you brought up these religious organisations that are dedicated to improving the lives of others, I can ask, does doing good work in one area mitigate doing evil in another?
