Well then, yes, it absolutely would be a better world.

@ the OP
Okay..I imagined it...and I'm going to need a new keyboard...because this one is......"ruined".
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I don't really desire that it disappear altogether, but I would like them all to cease and desist pushing their creeds onto the rest of us. I don't even mind public displays of religion so long as it isn't foisted on anyone or cut into anyone's time who has to wait through it to get to the business at hand.
I like a good deal of religious inspired music. Hell, I may be a closeted religious sympathizer.

No wasting time praying to a god that isn't there.
We can concentrate on actually being fucking productive.
