This week’s “hot & cold 10” religions. Part I

Diderot once said “One will never become free until he gets rid of God in his mind”. But do all people who haven’t “driven God out of their minds” deserve to be labeled as slaves? Can it be true that all religions, beliefs, cults and ideologies spotted their reputations by exerting pressure on their “flock” and investigating thoroughly “thought crimes” of their adherents? I’m sure that among them there can also be found some concepts that don’t give mixed messages and don’t make their votaries blush with shame in front of skeptics. There’s no doubt that all readers are aware of the largest religions postulates and are able to tell a lot of interesting things about Spinoza’s pantheism and deism that of course claim to be named among the most intelligent “God” concepts. That’s why I decided not to consider religions as a whole, but bring attention firmly to the degree of an individual's freedom in any given system of beliefs. “Am I a trembling creature or have I the right?”
Maybe it’s not the most objective index and it would be better to count the number of people who fell victims to deeds of various cults or do something else. But nobody claimed that the comparison was going to be fair.  It seems like it is the freedom of speech and action given to its adepts that lets us make assertions about the real power of a belief system.
So, here’s our hit parade:
