Deism Can Put an End to Religious Misogyny Misogyny is morally wrong. It is also promoted by all of the man-made Abrahamic "revealed" religions. Recently a woman in Jordan, an Islamic nation, was beaten and had her eyes gouged out by her husband. The Quran claims God commanded Muslim men to beat/scourge women who they fear may become rebellious towards them. Deism can put an end to these harmful religious teachings, if given the chance.

Fear-based Religious Lies Promoted by Hollywood The "revealed" religions thrive on making people fearful. They have an ally in Hollywood, as is seen in the current movie The Conjuring, which is falsely advertised as being based on a true story. Marie Curie gave us great advice when she wrote, "Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less."

Most Christians Do Not Believe What is in Their Bible A claim that prayer cause a woman's amputated toes to grow back is a lie and can only be believed if you've given up your innate God-given reason for what the clergy call faith. Most Christians don't believe in "miracles" like this due to their lack of knowledge of what is in their own Christian Bible.

Why a Deistic Revolution in Religion is Important A key tool the theocrats in the religious right use to win support from millions of people is the lie that America was founded as a Christian nation. American founder and Deist Thomas Paine called for a revolution in religion based on our innate God-given reason and Deism. Mass knowledge of this can help people free themselves from religious influence and stop the US from becoming a theocracy.
