What comes to mind when you hear the word 'religion'? I think of a contract with rules and regulations that stipulate the following of these to receive a reward. For many, the rewards are enticing as it gives them hope as to what lies ahead. In my opinion, the negative impact religion has had on society as a whole has deeply outweighed what little charity it has provided, and it should be abolished. I was ushered into religion when I...

In spite of that, I reached the sixth year of piano, only two years after finishing my degree, and also with quite good grades. I never considered myself a musician, much less now that I almost...
