Religion freedom doesn't need to exist because with the first amendment. Religious freedom is just a enabling
law to allow people to be shit heads enough said.  Angry

Yes all holy books are used as weapons, but what do you want, a perfect utopia? I agree with what you say, but unless y are going to become a monster yourself to get rid of religion, western law isn't just there to protect atheists, and there are 7 billion humans. Even if all 7 billion of us were suddenly atheists, we'd have divisions too.

I agree with criticizing religion even blaspheming religion, especially when it comes to bigotry, sexism, homopobia and religiously justified violence. Now I certainly think you don't want a one party state like North Korea where only one person is worshiped, nor do I think you want to use genocide.

So outside criticism and blasphemy, what do you suggest we do to make the world more civil?

All i am really saying is you have freedom of religion already you don't have the freedom to do what ever you want when it comes to religion is what
i am saying. You can be a bigot, racist a dick head. But what you cannot do is use your religion to harm the rights of others being, abortion, firing someone for being irreligious,
keeping non religious from running for office, bathroom banning trans people, not serving someone a cake if they are gay, etc. I take that issue when it comes for freedom of religion 
and it also hurts kids as well pushing a false belief onto them in schools which is proven time and time again religion christianity is in fact not factually true but even being pushed into the secular classroom is highly inappropriate and religion is a private thing not something you waste your time on being indoctrinated in school. People can have religious studies all they want they should not however be allowed to preach it because religion is not true.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.
