Replacing Christianity with Islam

[Brian37]

Yeah, I thought so too. But someone who I'm pretty sure is a troll was arguing about it so I figured I'd lay it to rest.

Islam is pretty much Christianity from the dark ages, they are both stupid and dangerous.

I agree, but again, since we live on a planet of billions of both Christians and Muslims it would be a bit unrealistic to claim you could rid the world of it. The best you can do is foster scrutiny of religion, and keep a leash on it and foster critical thinking skills.

But yea, all three of the religions of Abraham, Jewish, Christianity and Islam all stem from the same tribal God. And all of those religions started in an age of rival kingships. 

Religion, and  not just those three, but religions in human history are really nothing but artificial reflections of our real evolutionary social grouping in seeking social order. 

Religion wont go away but it must be seen more as a horrible way of conducting political diplomacy. The founders knew religion, even under the same umbrella labels, would compete between the different sects for political power. That is why they came up with concepts of neutrality in the First Amendment and the oath of office.

Or as Jefferson put it, "a wall between Church and state."
