The price of this lust for power is paid every day in massive amounts of human suffering, illness, and death so incalculable that it amounts to crimes against all humanity.
It should be stated that the Catholic church has been the major contributor to this crisis in Third World countries. Bertrand Russell (and Robert Ingersoll before him) had much to say on the subject. "That the dogmas of religion do little harm is not true," wrote Russell. "Opposition to birth control makes it impossible to solve the population problem and, therefore, postpones indefinitely all chances of true world peace."
The church's opposition to modern methods of family limitation has been a major cause of the spread of hunger and malnutrition, as well as the depletion of our planet's natural resources. As if the church's influence over millions of its followers isn't enough, The papal power continues to harass and intimidate governments at all levels around the world as they seek to provide family-planning services to their citizens.
It is that the richest and most powerful church in the world depends for survival on the wretched concept of sanctified suffering and the promise, of a better life after death. Freed from the imprisonment of these cruel shackles, humankind just might oust the whole ghoulish lot of them. Surely it is imperative that we aid and encourage this process. As Satanists, it is our inherent responsibility to denounce atrocities perpetrated in the name of a cruel nonexistent God who takes pleasure in torturing and enslaving humanity.
