I, as a believer in religion, don't see that ppl need religion to be able to live this life.. To live this life they need proper education and basic material needs..

Religion is about after death more that it's about this life.. Belivers take this life as laying foundations for the eternal one..

Ppl need religion like I said above so when eventually ppl go to Paradise they're not left behind..

Cargodog.. If you believe in God and in Paradise then you have to know from the "Owner" of Paradise how to get to it.. If you try to "guess" then you might take a detour to Hell :)

alain.. Thanx I'll try to find the info on BBC website.
