Disagree. I have met so many people who would consider themselves bad people (criminals with no conscience), but have turned their lives around "for the better" thanks to finding something with more meaning. No religion would mean that people like this would have no reason to try and better themselves. It is when bad people try and warp religion for their own purpose that things go wrong.

No, I almost always hesitate to discuss religion but I have to say that spirituality is one of the ideology's that preserves our humanity. Even self professed atheists have some belief in something greater than themselves that governs their behavior. I am just sorry that as the world shrunk religion has been used to establish more boundaries between people and regions. Those of us that are true believers in God's grace (how ever you call Him/Her) know that peace and happiness are His gifts to us. All we have to do to receive them is accept them.

Disagree for chaos would reign. Sin is the root of all the worlds sorrows. If the human person would follow the laws of God perfectly peace on earth would be realized

Agree, people can be as spiritual as the want to be, but organized religion really needs to be abolished.

note - extreme devotion,

Didn't Christ kinda say that church is unnecessary in the sermon on the mount?

from the book of Matthew:

6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

Well religion without sperituality is worthless, but that doesnt mean its bad. Religion based off of spiritual beliefs is nice. But mindless religion is doing nobody any good.

Agree, however I would add that following Jesus is far removed from a mere religion.

Destroy religion and the world would be a much nicer place. We could finally start making Earth heaven instead of some fairy tale land that only delusional people believe exist.

Depends which religions we are talking about. I'm a Christian and believe it is a command from God. Mankind cannot operate on its own, so I disagree with your premise.
