Isn religion for people who aren willing to think for themselves?
In most areas of knowledge, rote memorization of basic information lays the foundation for higher reasoning. You didn’t discover the number system, the alphabet, the laws of grammar, arithmetic, or the postulates of geometry yourself. No doctor derives for himself the laws of organic chemistry or of pharmacology for himself. The foundation of knowledge we learn from others permits us to learn for ourselves. The same is true with religion. The Bible states spiritual and moral postulates. Applying those principles – deciding which applies, when, and how – is the ultra-hard work of thinking that makes each of us unique.
