I'll entertain the theory that religion was once beneficial to survival, but it has mutated into a power game now really, and the deluded just haven't seen it yet. But its purpose has never been peacekeeping, have you seen the old testament? It's a manual on how to live in a warlike era. Just keep killing the outsiders. Peacekeeping my ass.
And yes, religion IS BAD.
you're ridiculous. I said that religion was only beneficial to survival because of the power involved. The old testament isn't a manual, it's a book of stories with figurative meanings. You'd know that if you knew what you were arguing about.
