Do you think that we will still need weapons if there was no religion?
yeh obviously, people will still be afraid of each other and need to defend themselves. Weapons would DEFINITELY still exist. Even when there's no religion there's racial hatred, even when people are the same color same religion same everything they create different teams, sides, tribes, sports teams whatever and always fight.
It might not even make much difference overall, science may progress faster, I think productivity would be raised due to less money being spent on bullshit, for example evangelists and other religious conmen.
There might be more progression in womens rights but then who knows, maybe the cultures where they use religion as an excuse to repress women might still be bastards to women and just use a different excuse this time. That goes for everything, maybe the people who are opposed to abortion would still oppose it without need for religion.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
