Would the twin towers still be standing if religion didn't exist?

Answer 1

That depends if you call Zionism a religion.
I suspect that without religion, the mindset of the Zionista would still exist, and they would still want to control the planet, so they would still have carried out their plan. They wouldn't have been able to blame it in Muslims so they would have chosen some other scapegoat.

Answer 2

Do you mean, if religion NEVER existed. Then the question is impossible to answer. Religion has been the single largest driving force of humanity since someone first asked "Why".

If you are asking, would 9/11 happened if religion still did not have such pervasive influence in modern society? I think it would have, or something similar. Religion is the catalyst, but not the cause. If it weren't religion, people would kill each other over something else instead. The true cause of 9/11 was fanaticism, it does not matter if the reason is nationalism, racism, political philosophy, social philosophy, or religion.

Answer 3

I'd say no - the US was colonized in large part by immigrants seeking religious persecution from British rule. So, without religion, the US would have potentially been colonized to a greater extent by the French, Portugese, Spaniards or Dutch. In this case, perhaps a civil war would never have occured, but rather, the US might have been split into distinct cultural states. I couldn't really see the dutch building two monumentally high buildings in New Amsterdam (I'm being a smarty pants on this one...fun though...)

Answer 4

If their was no God then there would be no earth or man on the earth to build the towers so No it would not be still standing if there was not religion.

Answer 5

Religion has divided mankind since before the middle ages, and we have seen history repeat itself inevitably with the tragedy of the ancient crusades in the name of God, to modern crusades which are motivated by greed; greed for power, greed for money, greed for a legacy, all done in the name of God. God can't be on both sides (a house divided against itself........). The entire idea that the motives attributed were for God's sake is a travesty. Sadly people today see religous extremists and write off all religion. Is this fair? Not all religion causes these kind of things to happen, but for the most part religion has not promoted what it claims to (good samaritan anyone?), it has divided people and in my opinion caused tragedies like 9/11 for the sake of a God who doesn't want it, and a false religious ideology that INDIVIDUALS have taken out of context to interpret as:Destroy all who don't agree with our faith.

Answer 6

A lot of human will power and motivation is religiously driven. If there were no religion, we wouldn't have twin towers, we'd have hovering tri-towers because religion wasnt there to hold back science in the middle ages. OR the other possibility is that mankind feels everything is so meaningless. Therefore, depression lowers progress.

Answer 7

No. The twin towers went down because the lease-owner of the buildings had just taken out a huge insurance policy on the buildings.

He sure gained a huge abount of money and by the way, is on the board of directors for Halliburton.

Answer 8

I doubt it. They would have been destroyed for some other reason.

Religion isn't the only thing people fight about. Nationalism, racism, sexism, ageism, there are many forms of hate.

The people who took the towers out were from a country that is more poor than the US. As Americans we think we are so great. As such other nations look to kick the stool out from under us.

Answer 9

There would be a lot less violence all around without religion. The twin towers would probably still be standing.

Answer 10

no, because in the islamic community, there are 2 types of "muslim" religions. 80% is one and 15% is the other. also, the people that attacked are the 2% of crazy people. 3% are just.. "whatever"..
