How would the World be different If there were no Religions or believers of "God" whatsoever?

Question

In your opinion,Would the Human Race be better or worse off?

Answer 1

Given that religious extremism is the most dangerous threat to humanity today, we can no longer be of any doubt that religion itself has become the enemy of humanity. Those who claim that the world would degenerate from a lack of morals and what not fail to acknowledge that the world already has a lack of morals. Ethical decision-making and moral behavior are things that people choose or not, irrespective of whether religion is involved. After religion has finally gone extinct, each of us will still be responsible to make ethical choices in our daily lives. In other words, the world will most probably still be pretty much the way it is now albeit with a lot less terrorism of the kind characteristic of religious fundamentalists.

Answer 2

certain faith is eveident on your church. Your Pastor by skill of your admission is immature and is constructive as an unlearned eighth grader. Age has no quailficatioon at the same time as it come to preaching yet Pastoring is an complete nother consider expertise and overseeing souls for Christ. he's non secular and it really is fantastic that the elders on your church arent discerning adequate to work out by the dirt. study you bible and allow the Holy Spirit to apply you to counter verify your pastors claims and accusations.

Answer 4

I'm postive the population would be greater. Less wars, violence, racism, I could go on and on. Certainly existing knowledge would be greater. Considering that there would be no dark ages, papalcy era in which certain people were commissioned for their work. People would have been more free to do whatever they wanted to do in life. Civilization at a whole would be more peaceful.

Answer 5

Worse off. Religion plays a huge part in our development as a species.

Answer 6

I think this is an impossibility. As spiritaul creatures we question everything to bring us understanding. Unfortunatley that understanding has to be categorized or labeled. It is not our belief in god that causes wars and suffering. IT is how we allow our egos to guide us and call it in the name of god. We try to justify our actions without excepting the responsibility. Most of us to not even come close to honoring the word god, because we use him as a scapegoat in every aspect of our lifes. God is not to blame. We are for trying to dictate to others their beliefs and use him to justify our causes. God will tell you you need not justify your causes using my name. Know that no matter what you do you have already justifed for yourself, or you wouldnt do it. Then we have a better understanding of who god is
I wish you well

It wouldn't exist at all. The main purpose of human life is to thrive in Jesus Christ, regardless of how few thier may be. If no one even believed in God, what would be the purpose of creating the this place or even us at all.

Probably better off; too much damage is done in the name of "God". The ideal would be to replace religion with critical analysis.
