Europe, Australia, Canada and the USA are such savage places... All of them seperate religion from government. And yes, I'm aware that many people in the US are Christian and still go to church. I still wouldn't call it a religious society considering nobody is forcing you and many Christian rules aren't followed (sex before marriage, gay marriage (depending on which state you live in), etc.) Now take a look at the majority of the Muslim countries where state and religion go hand in hand together. Not so nice places to live in. |
i didn't say that i think religion should be imposed on anyone, i'm just making the point that atheistic societies have a pattern of devolving into savage regimes
and i don't quite get how you can consider America to be atheistic, the other regions i can't really speak on but i don't think they are atheistic either
i suppose i worded my post wrong in the first place anyway i should have said "where theism is popular" because to some extent i'm beginning to consider atheism to be a religion in its own right except that instead of a supreme being separate from humans the worship is of man and his achievements as god
