i mean, do you think we would all be better off without religion?

no, the opposite. Won't even talk religion, let's talk AA. Alot more abusive drunks without a higher being, for example. Oh and people can not decide on their own what is right and what is wrong-Nazi's foe example. people are just so lazy and self absorbed, I can't take it...

YES!Not the source of all evil but some. Religion plays a big factor into many major problems we face today. Some may say its all man's doing but its the religious belief that drives them. These are people who are just way too stubborn to set aside their subtle religious differences. One group may say christ has already came and the other would disagree...WHO GIVES A RATS A S S?! Is that worth fighting over? This is why I'm atheist , so I don't have to deal with this kinda BS. Like the preacher and the little boys...Fondling little boys and representing your dedication to God??? Its all BS man...Come out the freaking closet already sheesh!!

Not all evil. Greed is the source of a lot of evil.
But yes, I think that the world would be better off without religion.

people are the cause of evil but religion is used as an excuse to carry it out so yes we would be better off without organised religion

Of course not. Religion is not the source of all evil. Most of it, sure, but definitely not all.

How do atheist countries factor into your equation?
U.S.S.R.? China, Cultural Revolution? North Korea?
Journey Well...

No, religion is just a symptom--a widespread, pervasive symptom.

Not all evil, but it has certainly played its part.

Jesus condemned it.
Abridged Church History makes a serious case for it.
