Given that so many wars have started, and continue because of religious beliefs, I would say religion is extremely important in society. Anything that can evoke the kind of passion necessary to maintain the level of intensity needed to sustain a war is important.

I certainly hope so. It is to me anyway. Religion has done more good for the world than the absence of religion.
I'm a proud Catholic Christian.
God Bless

Sure...what do you think that all the fighting and chaos in the middle east is all about...If you believe in something bad enough that you would die for it, then it might be pretty important to someone.

Yes. Without it, we wouldn't have as many wars as we usually do. That would be just plain boring now would it?

Considering what it does in society today, NO.
It would be considered detrimental.
