From Roadside Dog
Religion, opium for the people. To those suffering pain, humiliation, illness, and serfdom, it promised a reward in an afterlife.
And now we are witnessing a transformation.
A true opium for the people is a belief in nothingness after death-the huge solace of thinking that for our betrayals, greed, cowardice, murders we are not going to be judged.
