Never! I agree with you about the "evil wart". Looking back in history you will find that wars have generally been started over religious differences. However, religion is about believing and it is impossible to make people believe differently, especially since religion is an irrational belief, it is not backed up by facts. This makes religion intensely personal. Each person believes in his/her own way and in his/her own God. There is no getting away from it.

Well is dropping off from a major part of the population but it will never drop off entirely.
If it dropped off entirely then theyre'll be no one saying that incest is evil. Because logically and rationaly theres nothing wrong with incest.
Also theyre'll be no one saying homosexuality is wrong.
They're'll be no one saying that stealing, killing, commiting a crime, selling drugs, etc is wrong as long as the police don't see you. Who cares if you steal money from others as long as u dont get caught. u only have this life so enjoy it while u can !
The man who killed 100 men can only be punished for killing one at the most in this world. If theres no religion theres no sense of justice
Thats what will happen the more the religion starts dissappearing!

Re 20:1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
Re 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
Re 20:3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
Re 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Re 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Re 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Re 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
Re 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
Re 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
Re 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

BEASTS
In Dan.7:2-8 we have 4 great beast come up from the sea. Sea, that is peoples of the earth. The first 3 beasts co-exist when the 4th beast rises. The 1st beast is Great Britain and the United States. The 2nd beast is Russia and communism. The 3rd beast is camouflaged with spots. It has 4 heads or hidden dynasties. (PEER) Politics, Economy, Education, and Religion. 2 sets of wings which is media and communication. The 4th beast is the same as the beast of Rev.13:1-2. It is a one world system or new world order. This beast is still rising out of the sea. It will have 7 heads or dominions, 10 horns or leaders. Then will come up a little horn which is AntiChrist.
APOSTASY
In II Thes.2:3 there will be “a falling away” first, apostasia in Greek. This is defection from truth or divorcement from God.
PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE
In Matt.24:32-34 Mark 13:28-30 the generation which sees this fig shoot “set up” will not die until all these things be fulfilled. This happened when Israel became a nation again May 15, 1948. This coincides with the baby-boomer generation and they have Grey hair.
WHEN SHALL THESE THINGS BE
In Matt.24:3-8, Mark 13:5-8, Luke 21:8-11.
Many shall come in my name (authority) saying I am Christ (Christian) and shall deceive many.
The best example of this is the so-called Rapture. This is a LIE which can easily be disproved by God’s Word. Christ returns at the seventh trump.
Wars and rumors of war.
Nation shall rise (rouse from obscurity) against (along side) nation kingdom against (along side) kingdom.
The words “shall rise” (eg-i'-ro) in Greek means “rouse from obscurity”.
This word “against” (epi) in Greek means “along side” not in opposition to.
Since 1990 (30) new countries have emerged. We now have the global market place or the global community.
Famines. Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:
This famine of hearing the words of the LORD is very apparent on TV. Maybe a verse or two then mans’ words for 20 minutes.
Pestilences. Aids, mad cow disease, bird flu and etc.
Earthquakes in diverse places.
This word “earthquakes” (seismos) in Greek means both “earthquake and tempest”.
Look at the hurricanes we have been having.
All these are the beginning of sorrows (birth pangs).
This word “sorrows” (odin) in Greek means “birth pangs of childbirth”.
The birth pangs of a new dispensation, and the contractions are getting closer together. The water may have broke during the tsunami of 2004.
SCOFFERS
II Pet.3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, II Pet.3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
PERILOUS TIMES
II Tim.3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. II Tim.3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, II Tim.3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

Religion has been made into a infectious ugly wart by those politically oriented hypocrites. But, sadly, religion is just one of those warts. It will drop only with humanity itself. Sounds pessimistic?

You are obviously very ignorant and simple minded if you think religion is evil. Humans are a spiritual creature, it is in our nature to want to believe in things. We aren't left-brained creatures, we are left AND right-brained creatures. You and your kind, who believe in nothing and wish to defy nature, are the true evil ones for trying to destroy something that is part of the collective human consciousness; belief, wonder, spirtuality, etc. These are the things that makes us special compared to the other animals.

Considering religion has been with the human race for thousands, possibly millions of years (even cavemen practiced a form of religion and worship), I think it's here to stay in one form or another. The religions we have today may change, but it's innate in most of us to believe in something bigger than ourselves.

Too bad that's not an original idea, that's in the bible. Babylon the great, the wolrd empire of false religion will be destroyed by earth's govermants. This is foretold in revelation by the great harlot being destroyed by the scarlet colored wild beast she had been enslaving for so long.
In short, don't woory man, its gonna happen.

As our understanding of the universe increases - we will depend less on religion for explanation.
