    catholicism, hinduism, 7th day adventists, islam etc.

    The choice is yours.

    Please tell us your reasons and the impact you think it would have, if it were erased from existence.

    This is way too easy.

    Way, way, way, way, way, way, way too easy.

    I can't stress this enough.

    Islam. As easy as that.

    Why? Because it's a hateful and violent religion due to its extreme amount of fanatics.

    Eliminating it would almost single-handedly eliminate much of the conflict and discrimination in the modern world, allowing for the world to prosper both socially and economically.

    I can go on and on.

    Islam.
    Their extremists are too extreme.
    I think the consequence would be that Christianity became the new Islam.

    I wouldn't think so, especially considering the major centers of Christianity. They are all within rather intellectually driven and comparatively socially liberal cultures. There really isn't much room for irrational extremism within the world in which Christianity exists.

    (Plus, there are too many differentiating sects which would not allow for one to three major forms of extremism to form. )

    All right, allow me to reiterate.

    One of the many branches of Christianity would become as extremist as Islam is today, or a new branch would form for the extremists.

    Christianity is certainly the second most extreme religion there is, in terms of blind faith and ignorance in its followers. As long as there is organized/theistic religion, there will be homicidal nuts spilling blood for their deity.

    Christianity doesn't promote conquest and death like Islam does (read: can be interpreted to promote) but I'm positive some people would go down that road eventually.

    I wouldn't erase any set of complete religious scriptures.

    Sure there's some fuckbrains who claim to be Muslims.|Tinpot dictatorships everywhere hijack and twist the local religion for their own wacko aims.
    Altho that will obviously go over the heads of the Republican voters here...:rolleyes:
    But we need to look a bit closer to home too before we're gonna say whats a "bad religion".

    Like I said before the word "religion" is warped.
    It should be "values, customs and beliefs"Big difference.

    Lets see what Christianity has done.If we're stupid enough to accept someone saying Christianity is just someone labelling themselves Christian.

    Hmm, burning scientists at stakes.
    Locked up producers of softcore porn in Britain until the mid 1990s.
    Burning people if simply accused of crimes without proof.
    Sending someone to hell for refusing to send money to Rome, or challenging a "king".Or stealing a loaf of bread when they're starving.
    Genocide, pillaging and destroying culture around the World.
    Allowing Adolf Hitler to be part of its religion.
    Genocide in the 2000s.
    Banning ground-breaking medical research in the 2000s
    etc etc.

    Ohcourse these things aren't remotely Christian,atleast not in my view.
    So why link cuntishness with religion?
    Answer- because some people are VERY small-minded.

    I think religion is the worst thing that ever happened to mankind so it's near impossible to pick one. It's like voting, choosing an asshole from an ocean of assholes.

    I'd got for atheism, get rid of it. It's of no use to anyone, apart from making atheists feel like they are above everyone else intellectually.

    Of course it's all bollocks, it's ALL bollocks. There is no substance or ether to the universe, therefore all words, things, gestures and happenings donot exist but in the mind of infinite potential.

    I see what you're saying, and I'd agree... but as I've said... the societies in which Christianity is predominant have laws and social regulations which oppose such extremism... while Islamic countries function of the laws of Islam and open the door for such extremism.

    There is a separation of church and state (at least to some degree) in Western nations.

    When was the last time you've heard of extremism as strong as in Muslim nations in the U.S. or in Europe that extended from Christianity?

    You are very ignorant, but it's probably because you're young and inexperienced.

    Religion isn't all that bad.

    Most people have no moral guidence without it and are too dumb to find it within themselves.

    Religion is also responsible for a whole lot of the literature and sciences (and preservation of) in human history.

    Among other things.

    I disagree. I've seen my share of asshole oceans and there's always at least one that stands out from the rest.

    Do tell because I've heard that the progress and development of different sciences has always been a lot slower in the times of religious reign.
