The Future of the Religious Right

beliefnet

As the religious right is systematically destroying the education and hence competitiveness of their children in the secular world. They will end up in religious enclaves with no visible means of support. This is known as bad luck.

Scientific inquiry, and human rights for all will continue to flourish outside those enclaves. It may take a while, but probably not long as they have made half of the country's population their enemy. Politically this is suicide. But in the USA politics has been irrelevant for the productive sector since Regan, and the religious and the rich can fight over the scraps.

That topic is constantly bothering me. If anyone is able to answer that question, then I would be very grateful :) So what do you think ? What are the four basic needs? Thanks for constructive answer :)

Maslow's are as good as any. Physiological, safety, belonging, and esteem. Religion is basically designed to satisfy these needs and no others. Any attempt to achieve self-actualization will be rigidly suppressed.
