The religion can not be given up so long concept of God is there. Biggest enemy of humanism is God whose concept has created religions and people indulged in discriminating on this account. Preachers of all religions talk of peace, fraternity but never practice it.
This exposes myth behind what is being taught and what is practised in religion.
Good question that deserves a good answer. I dropped out of my religion decades ago and went on a personal journey to find the answers that could not be answered by religions. All my basic questions have now been answered.
I know truths such as: there is no hell, God does not punish, we are co-creators with God, there is no man who is God nor will ever be God but we are all part of God, as the leaves of a tree are not the tree but are parts of it, etc. I don't have to show more examples. I am free from doctrines and the authority of religious people. We were not born with labels.
Nothing in the world was created with labels. Humans give arbitrary labels and meanings to things and ideas. Religion is one of the things humans invented which has been the cause of wars, injustices, cruelty, deceit, exploitation, fear, discrimination, and many other forms of abuse over people throughout history.
People are slowly waking up to the truth about the true nature of religion.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
