"I think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people. Religion promotes the hatred and spite of gays. ... From my point of view, I would ban religion completely, even though there are some wonderful things about it. I love the idea of the teachings of Jesus Christ and the beautiful stories about it, which I loved in Sunday school. But the reality is that organized religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into hateful lemmings, and it's not really compassionate." - Elton John
