   Evil of the civilization   
   Spirit of Truth   
   Analysis   
      
   We are going to consider here how religions effect civilization and human   
   spirit. It comes out from the title that we expect from the term religion   
   only rotten things. It would be however wrong not to mention thereby   
   positive moments of it. A positive moment consists in that religion has   
   to do with faith, which is however harmed badly by it. Other positive   
   moment of religion may be in providing humans with hope if however in   
   form of a mistake. Since we already satisfied consideration's dialectic   
   requirements, we will concentrate self on the effect of religions upon   
   human spirit. We begin with definitions in simplest form. Term faith   
   deals with a necessity to accept some knowledge without proof. We assume   
   also that human has a double-sided nature, and he embodies material and   
   mystic aspects of determinate being. We call human's mystic nature   
   spirit. A pure spirit does not need faith, whereby human's material side   
   can't in any case get along without faith, as well as a spirit with   
   material determinate being. Religion is a primitive form of the faith in   
   certain dogmas. Church is a politically and with power motivated   
   administration of religion, which strives by speculations with faith   
   after power and money. Natural human demand for faith is abused on this   
   way. Faith is actually a very positive moment of the material determinate   
   being. A religion peddles conceptions, which are based and developed upon   
   dogmas having nothing to do with reality and current human experiences.   
   Common for all religions is stiffness of such conceptions. It seems to be   
   in any case ill, if everything around develops itself; religious   
   conceptions however remain unchanged, as they had been at the beginning,   
   which actually completely contradicts the common sense. It makes matter   
   worse that religions act as brake on every human spirit development, and   
   it fights against any changes mercilessly. It is characteristic of all   
   religions that they seize themselves with topics, which are   
   inconceivable. Instead of regarding concrete human and his spirit, they   
   are concerning self with things, which are alike whole universe.   
   Following rhetorical question rises in connection with this matter. What   
   concrete cell of a human body knows about human as such? Religions know   
   still less about the whole universe. Hence it follows that usefulness of   
   religious conceptions is completely absent. The mentioned above human   
   cell would have to develop knowledge about adjoining cells, instead of   
   human body. The most important characteristic of religion consists in   
   serving as ideological support for organization called church. A second   
   moment, which makes religion so malicious, is its merge with state. First   
   aspect defines an attribute of the Christian religions. Only one of them   
   possesses purely religious state named Vatican, which fact throws the   
   church and the religion in abyss of the absolute evil. Absurdity is the   
   nature of this criminal organization. Confirmation of this view comes   
   from the fact that Christian churches invent absolutely incompatible   
   notions like, for example: religious science, religious state and   
   political parties, religious University, Dr. Dr. of theology, religious   
   right, holy church etc., as if an university of superstitions and   
   charlatanism would be also completely normal notions. It is to be   
   mentioned that there is no Muslim or Hebrew church, as well as a Muslim   
   or Hebrew Vatican. Centralized administration is characteristic of all   
   Christian churches. Since there is actually nothing to believe in it,   
   church authorities, manager and administration trust in nothing except   
   money and power. The lowest stage of the church hierarchy consists of   
   humans, whose need for faith is abused, and whose spiritual development   
   is been braked on worst. Human spirit falls thereby to the victim of   
   money and power greedy religious barons, and he is enslaved, chopped up   
   into pieces, and made to nothing. A statement that religions have to do   
   something with morality, does not find confirmation. Category of morality   
   should be applied only to an ordinary person, but not to many of them. We   
   observe just reverse situation! If policy is at all the worst term, then   
   participation of a religion in the policy is a component of the absolute   
   evil. Religion doesn't serve poor persons, but it ministers to tyranny   
   state, to criminal policy and to magnates. Catholic Church may thereby be   
   called the mother of every mafia. It always acts in the secret and from   
   the ambush. No laws are written for Catholic Church. If Catholic Church   
   in Germany has more power than the state, then Poland represents a   
   province of Vatican. All usurpers of power cooperate very closely with   
   national religions and even back up them. Such tendencies grow in Russia   
   and Ukraine, where political parties and government stand queue to   
   Christian churches, whereby spirit of the nation already does not exist   
   any longer for a long time. What lures all of these crooks of power to   
   largest Christian churches of country? This is absolute godlessness of   
   the church administration and their ability to lend power over the masses   
   to political jumped up office boys, in order to get back revenue in form   
   of state power. Like it is the case with financings for economics, spirit   
   nature became religious business. The topic is too large, in order to   
   consider it in detail. Let us outline briefly some characteristics of the   
   three probably admitted religions.   
              Christian religion began as a Jewish sect. The sect had seat   
   in Jerusalem. A Jew Saul entered into fight for influential position in   
   the sect, and suffered a defeat. Therefore, he created a sect of the sect   
   and changed the name to Paul. The Romans destroyed Jerusalem, and all   
   members of the primary Christian sect have been eliminated. Only   
   opportunists like Paul remained further existing as Christians. Ideas of   
   the secondary Christians spread under poorest layers of the population.   
   Thus a religion for poor population developed. Keiser Constantine   
   discovered in Christianity large advantages for rich and having power   
   ones, if this religion would be declared to be a state one, which also   
   has been done. Thus secondary Christian religion ceased to be, and a   
   quasi Christian religion for rich and power-having ones has been   
   established. In commemoration of the role, which Emperor Constantine   
   played in Christianity, Catholics destroyed during a crusade the city   
   Constantinople, and massacre the whole population in it. The number of   
   the terrible crimes of the Catholic Church grows since then incessant.   
   The lion's share of the evil in the world is caused today by the Catholic   
   Church.   
              Islamic religion has been developed, when the last of
