Superstition and Religion

Is it me, or is the world going backward, with the progress of the enlightenment being put into reverse with superstition (inspired by fundamentalist religions), on the rise world wide.

I have recently blogged on African and Arab superstition turning into the murder of people accused of "Witchcraft"...... and here is a tale of a group of Freemasons have had to spend a night in jail in Fiji, after local villagers complained they were practising witchcraft.

I am really beginning to think that we have let the dark ages back in to the world, by tolerating the rise of fundamentalist religions of all types.
