Antireligion is opposition to all religions. People who are antireligious may see religions as dangerous, destructive, divisive, foolish, or absurd. This opposition may be confined to just organized religions such as Christianity, Islam, or Scientology, or may be more general to include all forms of belief and superstition. For this reason people who are antireligious may not always be lacking in, or have absence of, spirituality. Antireligion is often based on arguments against the validity, usefulness, or ethicality of religion. Antireligious activity has ranged from criticizing and arguing against religion, to actively persecuting religious groups or outlawing religious practice. An example of an antireligious organization is the Society of the Godless.
