This is why religion must die, and the sooner the better, starting with yours.

No, this is just turning the tables of bigotry. Religions don't have to die. Only the tinfoily radicals have to die out. Not die in the literal sense of the word.

If religion wasn't around, people would simply flock to a different label to align behind and live out their vile instincts and bigotry. Actually that's what I don't understand with all too many people. That they consider the dying out of religion to be the remedy for what's wrong with this world. Religion is just another ideology when taken to the extreme. It's absence would instantly lead to new ideologies emerging. Human nature doesn't change.

Hmmmm. . . you make a good point.  I think communism, Naziism, etc. are functionally not much different than religions.

Hopefully selective breeding will weed out the nutjobs.  But the problem is that nutjobs also love breeding.  Looks like we are screwed.

But nah! I think any instutitionalized craziness should be discouraged and stamped out. Not by force, mind you, but by an unending stream of mockery. We just don't need fairy tales as central parts of other people's world views.
