In a perfect world, nothing needs to be banned, simply no one chooses to do the wrong.  The philisophical rammifications on banning religion is out right blasphemy, not in terms of religion, but in terms of humanity. 

And what is religion?  Isn't Atheism also a belief system?  Despite not believing in a higher power, the power is relegated onto humanity in itself. 

But yeah, it would be pretty cool if everyone gave in to logic and cast aside the romanticism of easy answers.


This still annoys me. Why do people consider athiesm a belief system? It isn't an just an alternate to religion.

Say we met some people that had never heard or thought about religion before would you still consider their athiesm to be a belief system or a total lack of belief?

Maybe if there were first a lack of belief in God, but I'm betting everyone here has an understanding of a "God" and it's concepts, therefore you can categorize them as either a believer or an atheist.  And Athiesm is a belief, or else why have a word for it?

Just because you don't know what 'cannabalism' is, if you eat your own species, you are one.
