"Martyrdom has always been a proof of the intensity,
never the correctness, of a belief."
The vast majority don't have a need for the control,
nor the self-esteem provided by organized religion.
All this, of course, has to do with
the NEED of certain people of a religious system,
NOT the TRUTH of that system.
The need for socializing can be met through other
means besides organized religion.
