In the Western world, mothers kill their own children so that the father of the children will come back to them.
This type of BS will not end until the human race ceases to exist.
No, but they use religion to justify what they have done and then others use it to justify what they are doing. It will not end with religion, but its spread might become more limited.
They might just come up with something else, but I do see your point. I hear there are less murders in Commonwealth nations that outlawed gun ownership relative to the US with the 2nd Amendment.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
