Ranking the world's worst religions

Ranking the world's worst religions
I originally considered having two qualifying categories to quantify which religion is worse than another: which religion is more obviously false, and which religion is more harmful. But then I quickly foresaw everyone here saying that they're all equally moronic and obviously false; also, harm is quantifiable. By "harm" I refer to a combination of harm to the self, to society, and to technological progress.

Another thing I'd like to say is that some would consider, say, Mormonism to be part of Christianity, while others (mostly Christians) resist this. I will consider them as separate because I think that Mormonism is a particularly harmful version of Christianity. Conversely, Buddhism is a spin-off religion but is far less harmful than its parent religion or perhaps any other religion on earth.

So you can include as many religions as you like. No need to make it a top 5, or top 10, or to include all. I'm just interested in seeing everyone's general opinion.

Here's my list:

1. Islam (by far)

2. Catholicism

3. Mormonism (probably would be #1 if spread worldwide)

4. Hinduism

5. Quakers (Quakerism?)
Jesus is like Pinocchio.  He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.
