Religion is like...

[Faerie]

What's your favorite metaphor to describe religion?

Here's a few of mine:

Religion is like a suppository - it irritates the shit out of me.

Religion is like a condom - it gives you a sense of security while you're getting screwed.

Religion is like gravity - it sucks.

Life without religion is like a fish without a bicycle.

Religion is like underwear - Everyone thinks you have to have it, but nobody can give a good reason why.

Religion is Like Wine:
Too much will kill you for sure.
Long before that it makes you stupid, tedious to have around, and a danger to yourself and others.

[Rigil Kent]

... weird, dude.
