Logicboy03:ok, here is d fact, every1 has a freedom to believe in any religion,but here is the point: no other religion has ever been backed up by death except christianity. Simple. |

Dr.Gboy: God, these colonial powers have a lot to answer for in the brainwashing of our citizens. So you know what the thousands of religions in the world preach about? Who backed this death you're talking about exactly? You mean the shepherd tales you read in your bible book of myths? Why couldn't these colonialsits just get on with their exploitative business in this country without lobotomizing our ancestors too. We're really a mentally enslaved people and hearing religious people (particularly christians) talk puts me in despair. 2 Likes |

If we say religion is not needed, I concur. Man does not need religion, but spirituality. If man was as spiritual as he professes, then we would not have all the problems we are facing. You would synergize logic and faith through spirituality. My problem with the atheists is that they don't believe in any supernatural force. The truth is that the world has a spiritual side. How would you explain your soul and consciouness? Can you explain why salt water and fresh water don't mix? Study nature and you would know that life has pre-defined laws. What(or who) instituted those laws? If we are more sprititual and less religious, we would be bettter off |

Interesting topic. Definitely, the world would be better off without religion. Religion tried to steal morality but it has failed woefully. Not with the Muslims extremists spreading hate & blowing up innocents to please God, the Xtian clergy fleecing the congregation, sodomizing little boys etc. All you need to be a good person is a conscience. It's not that complex. And no, conscience has nothing to do with religion. The most peaceful and prosperous people in the world (Scandinavians) are the most irreligious. Meanwhile, the most wicked and backward people (Africa & Middle East) are the most religious. That's a food for thought for all of us. |

mkmyers45: So religion serves no importance?presently no! Religion has outlived its importance. It was of memorial importance during the ancient times, ere civilisation, when mortals ignominously and exorbitantly exhibit evils without restraint; a ginormous threat to social order and peaceful co-existence...e.g. continual wars, slave trade, imperialism, aggrandizement of imperia...when mortals were yet wallowing in titanic ignorance of 'common sense' and cosmic knowledge. Nowadays, the duo of science and logic have numerably co-founded common knowledge and common sense, which invariably quell the necessity of a charade called religion, originally built for the cosmic ignoramuses. 1 Like |

Dr.Gboy: Even if Jesus does time travel back to our reality,i bet he wont be impressed by your sense of reasoning. |

Religion has shaped mankind, imagine where humanity would be without religion. |
Re: Would We Be Better Off Without Religion? by lukkie(m): 6:22pm On Oct 24, 2012 |
Yes, religion has really shaped mankind. Most evils perpetrated in the world today are either because of money or religion, or both. |

CGKing: Nonsense.....which shackles are holding Boko Haram and the christian witch beaters? They are already evil with religion. Religion causes divide and we would be less divided without it |
