I'm not asking if it is possible, but just what would be the end result if it did happen?
Well unlike anyone else on here I don't think much would change. If religion disappeared some other belief would probably immediately spring up to take its place. I have met people who believe in Astrology, Crystals, Feng Shui, Big Foot, the Lock Ness Monster, Alien Abduction and god knows what other kinds of woo bullshit.
Sadly - part of the human condition appears to be to believe in something more powerful than themselves or their species. What proportion of the human race is thus afflicted I do not know.
