So, this is something upon which I was reflecting

[Wyrd of Gawd]

Having read a few atheist books, there is this common thought that recognizing any good religion may provide to some people is still a detriment toward understanding that if people persist to practice religion that those people are still inadvertently supporting the actions of the extremists.

My boyfriend raised a rather interesting concept, in relation to alcohol, and I naturally formulated a correlation to religion since we were also discussing that as well.

After all, we are not attempting to ban alcohol just because people are irresponsible with how they drink.  It raised a flag, and I am quite known as being a fundamentalist anti-theist.  Should religion be banned because of those who mistreat it?

In the Bible they just killed the people who didn't follow the religious rules.
