If it wasn't for religion

[dyresand]

I see quite a lot more people quitting life after seeing the misery of it if it wasn't for religion . Being born in post collapse ex soviet state(Imagine the collapse of UK or US), I think a lot of poor people getting disappointed in life would just quit it if it wasn't for invisible happy land and painful land waiting for them.

Oh hey, a fellow sunbro but anyways religion itself has kinda done some good here and there but it also has done a lot bad. The problem with it people in the lower classes of society tends to believe in a god to get them by which isn't bad. But you look at other countries that are less theistic in the first world the people in the lower class of this the U.S. would be better off in Scandinavian countries they tend to be happier and healthier and their medical systems work.

Then there is the middle eastern or really religious countries in the middle east they... are.. really hostile to our kind of thinking. I would argue that Islam really did more harm for the free thinkers of the middle east
than any good. This is just a comparison to the christian dark ages where scientific advancement was set back.
