Some of religion is actually related to what God said (and says). I agree that religion can be stupid dogma embraced by the closed minded, BUT, even though I don't know percentages, modern evangelical christianity is not stupid or closed-minded, and neither is its dogma. It seems more reasonable to try to deal with all of experience, and the supernatural is part of what we experience. ( deal with != do it ). Sorry this is disjointed ( I got the urge to flame <- last time I promise)
