I laugh when people pray for world peace rather than try to achieve world peace the realistic way. It's always "Hurr durr... dear god... please make this world peaceful because the world is full of bigots... you probably won't hear my message but... whatever... your will be done... herp derp... I'm a gawd boleeevur..."
I said it before. 4 billion year old planet, only the past 10,000 years have humans learned to speak and write, and only the past 150 years has science really taken off. But what is really important to believers is that daddy loves us groveling for his attention to the point of bigotry, war and oppression, but who cares right? As long as after you beat the crap out of each other and talk to yourself and ask for peace, that makes all the crappy things you do to other humans fine.
7 billion humans and the big three monotheistic religions hold the entire planet hostage over old books.
