I agree to point,but am not holding my breath. Religions exists because it meets human needs.Once those needs are met in other ways,religion ceases.
I don't think it's coincidental that there is a high correlation between poverty,ignorance and religion,and affluence, education and secularism/ atheism.
One atheist says atheism is set on defeating religion, one atheist says it is not. Which is it?
Neither. Apart from the fact that atheists don't believe in a god or gods there is absolutely no reason why they should agree on anything else at all..
