P.Hitchens on false religion
Proponents of any particuar religion frequently claim that other faiths are false.<ref>http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/false_religions.htm</ref> For example, from a [[Christian]] perspective, [[Islam]], [[Hinduism]] and [[Judaism]] are considered false because their believers do not accept the divinity of [[Jesus Christ]]. To some Christians this also means that adherents of those religions will not receive [[Salvation]].

[[Peter Hitchens]] proposed that the modern [[Western world|western]] [[social]] [[democratic]] [[politics]] is a false religion in which people try to substitute a social [[conscience]] for an [[individual]] one and calls it an actively dangerous [[utopianism]]. [[Liberty]] and [[law]] are in his view attainable human objectives which are also the good by-products of [[Christian]] faith. [[Faith]] is the best antidote to utopianism, dismissing the dangerous idea of earthly perfection, discouraging people from acting as if they were [[God]], encouraging people to act in the belief that there is a God and an ordered, prurposeful universe, governed by an unalterable law.<ref>{{cite book |title=The Rage Against God |author=[[Peter Hitchens]] |publisher=www.continuumbooks.com |place=London, New York |year=2010 |page=envelope |isbn=978-1441-10572-1 |url=https://book.google.com/books?id=y3fOBAAAQBAJ }}</ref>
