Thank you for the example. Did the NT say to drown or burn "witches"? If not, your complaint is that a group added their own crap to NT instructions and then it was subsequently found to be crap. The OP did not say "misuses of religion stifles moral evolution", so I am assuming that it is the original instructions which define a Christian that has the "stifling" effect.
Are you suggesting that the new testament says that we are to abandon law altogether? That seems a bit steep.
I already supplied evidence that Jeebus says we aren't to do that. But as usual, he ignored all that because he couldn't deal with seeing a harsh truth about his precious religion.
