Just... No. If you think the world will be a better place and we won't have wars you are kidding yourself. I would say it would be even worse. Also the dispute there has nothing to do with religion, it is a territory dispute that just happens to be of two different nations with different religions. Just look at all the other territory disputes in the world. |
Will we have wars? Of course. We have stupid wars all the time.
Australia had a war against Emu's (A flightless bird) and lost.
But would we have "bullshit" excuses like "The Bible said this land is ours, so it's ours?" - Absolutely not.
The issue with Religion is that it completely shuts people off and makes them believe they are right using a faith-based (I.E. Blind belief) system that they do not question.
At-least with religion obliterated people won't be able to hide behind it or use religion to justify their actions, thus they will be able to be scrutinized far more heavily.
Plus it's a known fact that the three Abrahamic religions that are based on the Bible/Torah and Quran are inherently distasteful in their "teachings" which promote things like slavery, abuse, bigotry, death and condemnation to various extents, which absolutely doesn't help the indoctrinated think rationally and logically.
Either way... At the end of the day, I have no time for religion or it's shenanigans... Heck I find it insulting when someone tells me it was "God" that helped me save a life rather than years of experience, training, investment and hard work... No. All the credit goes to some fictitious deity they believe in, instead. |
People will find new ways of having wars. There is a good chance we might have civil wars in the future based on people's politics view and even separation wars within a country. In Africa and other places people kill each other not based on their religion but based on their tribes. Just look at the first and second world wars, or all the famine caused by crazy political initiatives. People will substitute religion for something else. As for people who thank God instead of you I just feel sad, for them and for you, you can be sure they are thankful it's just that people are used to thank God for everything good that happens to them, it's not that they do not appreciate what you do. But as you said, enough of religion shenanigans.
