After seeing the mass shootting that happened last night just confirmed it in full about the dangerous shit called religion, in particular this death cult of Islam. And I'm not going with that regressive shit anymore. I'm from 8chans atheism board so I'm a lot more serious about this shit. Ban fucking religion and stop these retard regressive cucks who enable it. Maher was right
I always like to ask the delusional, ok genus, ban religion? On a planet of 7 billion? Are you cherry picking one religion or do you mean all religions? And how exactly do we "ban" religion without becoming monsters ourselves?
Maybe you need to understand some biological evolution in a scientific sense to know how stupid that sounds.
First off, it isn't that I am even claiming religion should get a free pass, far from it. Religion SHOULD be scrutinized, debated, ridiculed and even blasphemed. But all of them, not simply Islam.
Ok here is the scientific reason what you wish for would be impossible. Cognitive primates, and mammals, seek patterns. It is why you can train a dog or an elephant. Humans evolved to seek patterns as well. The problem is we also at the same time gap fill in doing that, and our perceptions of reality can be and often are notoriously flawed. To say you can create a 100% delusion free world is absurd. If you hate the chase for a utopia religion is willing to kill to protect, then why would you want to suggest a "ban" on religion? Seems just as delusional and utopia to me.
There will never be perfect world where no divisions happen. The best we can do, and we should do, is challenge religion with debate and facts, and at best, with law, concepts of equal protection and bans on calls to violence to any group. We certainly can make the world less dogmatic and more secular, but it is patently absurd to think you can create a godless utopia.
To suggest a blanket ban would be seen as a threat to believers rather than what you think, a pragmatic solution, which it is not. And when they react to that "ban" we in turn would have to react harshly or worse to them to create that "ban". I am not willing to become a monster to accomplish that.
