which would you choose, and why?
NOTE: Atheism is not a religion, it's a belief. So, sorry, you can't eliminate atheism.

-_-' I'm not an athiest nor do I hate any religion. This was just a question to see if anybody hated any ONE religion enough to get rid of it.
I don't really see atheism as a religion. Sorry to offend ya, but I don't. It doesn't have a book, or any certain rituals you have to go by daily or weekly. It's just a belief that God(s) don't exsist. Lighten up people. I didn't ask this question to offend or come off as a *****, I just asked it because I was curious!

"NOTE: Atheism is not a religion, it's a belief. So, sorry, you can't eliminate atheism."
By your argument, all religions are beliefs, since religious people believe in God, or Buddha, or The Great Turtle. So what you are saying, is its ok to agree with you, as long as nobody tells you its wrong to be atheist, because you are atheist.
Are Christians hurting you somehow? Is Buddhism getting in the way of your plans? Are the Muslims worshipping Mecca getting on your nerves? Why do you want to take religion away from people? For many people it is how they get their values, would you take that away from them? Why not let others live their lives?

Be free and open minded.

Okay, let me start this off by saying I'm a Christian, and although there are other religions that, by their very nature, I don't necessarily agree with, I don't have, nor should I have, the power to eliminate. I can discuss my beliefs with someone of another faith, but they have the right to their beliefs just as I have the right to mine, and I certainly wouldn't want someone trying to "eliminate" my "religion".

properly, dude.. it quite will no longer do lots. For, you notice, like many different "utopia" theories, on a similar time as removing of religion does sound like the main to international peace, if we only take a seat and communicate approximately it, and particularly on the information of maximum of islam extremist, and the christian historic previous... yet like each little thing else, once you progression into fact, you will discover that it would not translate as properly. whether each and all of the present religions have been disproved, i can assure you; in a hundred years there'll be some new faith with regard to the "spirit of the universe" in a hundred and fifty years, there'll be a minimum of two factions of that faith. human beings will initiate struggling with returned. removing faith ?! ...wishful thinking

I wouldn't eliminate any of them. A great many people find comfort and purpose in practicing their religions, and statistics indicate that people who practice a religion are generally happier and healthier than people who don't.
Religions are often very useful to the communities in which they exist and in the world at large.
I myself am an agnostic. I believe that there is something that binds us together and some over-arching power in which we may repose our trust, but I don't know what that power is, or whether the nature of that power can be known, but I see much good in religion and often participate in some of the activites of my neighborhood church, such as sheltering the homeless and feeding the hungry. While I have no "religion" in that respect myself, I do enjoy the benefits of such participation.

I would eliminate all religion so that we would better understand God and his ways instead of trying to see through the cloud that religion can put over us

Note: Atheism isn't a belief it is a lack of belief.
None. If the religion itself causes no harm then it is ok.

I would eliminate any religions that try too hard to convert people, like saying that they will burn forever in they don't convert to blah di blah, or that you are evil and spawn of the devil and harassing you constantly.

Elimination is no solution.
God could do this but he wanted to test the human ( his choice to select good or bad) as to who utilize the knowledge and power given to him.
If we cannot accept any faith / religion we must lean to live with tolerance. we should give some rights to our neighbours to gain his favour....
