Las time I made such a thread I was banned, and my last thread before this one was closed without explanation.
So, yes, I know I am playing with fire and have now become a easy target for mods. So, I will not fall for flamebait comments asking me about homossexuality, don´t even try.
But I look foward to intelligent comments, pro or against my premisse. I think Vgchartz has, by far, the most smart gamers of internet in it, and some of the stuff I read (before being banned and having my threads closed) are amazing.
So, I think World Atheism will never happen. Why you can not kill God?
And existing or not have nothing to do with it, lots of non existent concepts have being killed through the ages, so the "you can not kill something that is not real" do not work.
Militant atheism is also a form of brain washing, just like organized religion, it is a "us vs. them" paradigm that benefits no one but those that hold or aspire to power.
People like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens taught us nothing but to hate people that believe in God, Jesus Christ or the supernatural in general.
For every smart atheist that appears, we have also a amazing christian apologist to answer with the same propriety. Like Frank Turek, John Lennox, Willian Lane Craig and even David Berlinki.
(Pictured: David Berlinski in debate against the late atheist Christopher Hitchens).
And faith is part of the human psyche, it is with us since the dawn of man. Even Carl Jung realized that, for every Freud we had also a Carl Jung that followed.
As for world peace, just watch GO GOD GO cartoon from South Park, a amazing "what if " history of how a world without faith, if possible, would have war just the same.

War and violence is part of us, we have a dark side inside in us all, and a part of us that is good. Religious or not, all men struggle, and will struggle with good and evil.

You can forbid religion, but faith will never go away, at most you can trade a faith by another, but if the new religion is science, it will fall short soon enough. Men realize one day or another that the world is not purely a phisycal realm, the divine is always calling us, echoing through the wind. Abolishing faith is nothing but a utopia, it can not happen. It will always ressurrect in some way, shape or form: believing is part of man.
Edit: Even if the day comes when society decides to kill all people of faith and destroy all religious texts, it will still somehow survive and begin to grow again.
A lot like THE BOOK OF ELI scenario
