Iran, what a country!
The argument of religion providing a good moral and social framework goes out the window when you know what goes on in a country like this that is so heavily influenced by religion in every aspect of the way it is run. Islam rules the way the government, the armed forces, the justice system are all run, and it shows. Just point to countries like this and Saudi Arabia when you are told by a religious person that religion provides a much better moral guide than Atheism.
