A state of mind prone to induce irrational behavior, violence, and a reduction in the ability to think. Caused by brain washing in early life this disease could turn out to be fatal for mankind due to its ability to induce hatred and isolation in sub cultures. It would seem to be spreading through the increasing numbers of "faith schools" whereby young minds are infected, often permanently rendering them as instruments of new infection. See behaviors of the leaders of the world which now support the indoctrination centers both in the so called civilized countries as well as in the third world.

On a personnel note its almost a pity that hell dose not exist, because if it did, then I would have great pleasure in seeing GWBush and Blair rot in it.

For those of you interested in futher reading, I recomend Richard Dawkins book "The God Delusion", and Daniel C Dennets book, "Breaking the spell".

What is really very scary is the rise of the so called ID (Intelligent Design) attacks on rational thinking and science.
