Atheism. Dangerous because it's followers aren't even aware they're courting hell.
(Speaking of courting...I fully expect to get repped by the resident theists now.)

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

oh yah I'm totally shakin in my boots here eh.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
Quote:Some people deserve hell.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Umm there is no hell and I don't fear it either.
"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful" - Edward Gibbon (Offen misattributed to Lucius Annaeus Seneca or Seneca the Younger) (Thanks to apophenia for the correction)
'I am driven by two main philosophies:
Know more about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you' - Neil deGrasse Tyson

I believe luckie's talking about the indian residential school systems in canada that systematically caused the deaths of about 50% of all first nation kids that went there.
I have to say Islam, I've lived in a muslim country, yes I'm incredibly biased, I'm also incredibly aware. So yea, Islam. It used to be Christianity though.

Mmmhhhnnn Something I consider to be a embarrassing moment in our nations history, that we have to learn from. Unfortunately not even the lawsuits are still running in some places, and the pain is quite raw. I am fortunate to be living in a town with one of the few flourishing native reserves. Most are appalling.

I recently did extensive research into the topic. The testimonies are heartbreaking and yea, the effect is still felt.

Sorry, you should know by now that I won't give you what you want. Now pull your pants back up, have some self-respect.
To the OP:
Materialism.
