| S.T.A.G.E. said: Religion pushes society back. It always has and always will. Society's progress has always occured outside of religion, but some people need it to get through the day, so I digress with that. |
That's not really true. Religion was what pushed the masses towards literacy. The first book ever printed on a printing press was a Bible. Massive innovations were made in the art world during the Rennaissance that were either funded or inspired by religion. And I say this as an agonostic (or aetheist in situations like this).
