You are lucky to live in a portion of the world which had equally grisly religious warfare centuries ago and the wounds have largely healed. Much of the rest of the world is not so fortunate.
Fortunately this "much of the rest of the world", even if we were to include the US, is responsible for significantly less than half of the world's economic productivity.
For progressing to next level of civilization it is not the head count that makes a part of the world significant. It is productive capacity and command of resources.
Even amongst the parts of the world retarded by religion, most religions don't much threaten areas outside of its own traditional shit hole. It is only evengelizing religions like Islam, and above all christianity, that directly threaten not only its own traditional shit hole, but seek to expand its baleful shadow to smother wherever human progress may that may be found.
