Also... would the world really be better off if Religion never existed?
You can argue that it's "outlived it's usefullness". From an atheists view i can see that.
However i can't see how an atheist could argue religion never had a use.
Religion for a long time was the main driving force behind science... and has times saved science from being lost. (For example stuff saved from the fall of Rome. Even more would of been lost without religion.)
It's only fairly recently that science has come into "conflcit" with religion.
