Which religion would you Obliterate?

[Brakeman]

Absolutely not, you can obliterate religion with science and reason, these only make more atheists not fewer.

Religion is merely a popular con game on the gullible, it is not needed, free or otherwise. You don't need to legalize imaginary gods to create a good society. You can't blaspheme against reality.

But it won't eradicate religion, no matter how educated humans become. Some of the most intelligent of scientists still manage to believe in a deity. Just look at the head of the HUman Genome Project.

Sure it will, eventually. Once atheism becomes the norm and not the exception, it will have a snowballing effect as most religion is spread by social pressure. While there is a slim minority of christians in upper science now, they are simply refusing to apply their reasoning abilities due to their environmental social pressures. Just like an unfavorable evolutionary trait, it will become extinct because science does not create gods, only ignorance creates gods.
