| what is with your religion threads bash? Also I'm not sure, never know until you try, probs yes though, or it'll cut down a few wars |

| Duplicate thread. To answer your question, that's impossible. As much as I don't like religion, we still need it. |
| It depends on which religion we are talking about . |
 |
| I have no idea. I cannot foresee events or guess the possibility of something bad/good happening depending on that religion. |

| Probably not, religion doesn't force people to do horrible things; horrible people decide to do horrible things in the name of religion. |

| As long as religion is kept private and doesn't mess with the state, I'm fine with it. My personal opinion is that religious people are needy and unevolved. Sorry but u guys keep human potential down. Religion is old and outdated. Clearly faked, give it up already, dogmas are just plain stupid. |

| Without religion, people invent another dogma to give them an excuse for being assholes, just look at Feudalism, Zionists, Nazis, KKK, black power groups, communists, radfems and SJWs. The world already is a "better" place than it used to be, no point trying to push our luck. |

| If you erased its existence ceteris paribus, perhaps. It's not that religion itself deserves to be blamed, but it has been misused and has served as a reason and justification for people to commit harmful acts, and from a utilitarian perspective removing that reason might prevent them from being able to act on their motivations, since they often require support, which a common belief provides (but to be fair, that's the case with just about any type of belief, not just religious ones). In addition, religion creates even more social divisions than there already are. But realistically, if religion never existed, people would have just found something else to create problems over, which would no doubt be just as bad if not worse than the ones caused by religion, and the concept of virtue would likely be less common among people in general, so most likely not. |

Absalom- said: The core "virtues" are completely separate from religion though. Being honest, trustworthy and helping your kin is a evolutionary beneficial trait, a thing that will always be valued.But realistically, if religion never existed, people would have just found something else to create problems over, and the concept of virtue would likely be less common among people in general, so most likely not. |

| I don't know. For example, when people say that the christian religion slowed down the progress of the technology, they're right. Millions of people died because of that : Medicine wasn't properly established in Europe, doctors waited til Renaissance to study dead bodies and make significant progress. But was it a bad thing, given the fact that technology is currently going too fast for us ? The human being can potentially make the world a better place or destroy it (thanks science c:), but is still struggling with money problems... Are we ready for our own technology ? (That is another question though~) For each bad thing the religion brought, a good thing came up too. That's what i think about the existence of religion. |
