What deism has done for the world

[Chad32]

Christ-less countries seem to do a lot better in equality, as well as non violence and other things. Sure, about a fourth of the population seems to think the bible leads to Jesus, but can't decide on how. I have heard of the effects christianity has on the world, such as genocide and discrimination and many bad things. Like I said, your god doesn't seem to be good at getting his message across, and I don't buy the whole incomprehensible deity dodge. If he's so incomprehensible that even devout followers will fight and kill over the proper way to worship him, he's incompetent and there's nothing you can say to ensure the public that he's any better than anyone else. You can't say he's impossible for us to understand, but also inherently good.

There have been studies that say less religious countries tend to do better than more religious countries. I'm not just pulling these idea out of my ass when I say that religion does more harm than good.

You can't just blame everything on the followers. Some responsibility must be laid on the leader. Yahweh is supposed to be the leader. The shepherd. Yet his flock is not as one, meaning he's not doing his job. It's not just like the idea of the prodigal son. It's that there is seemingly a thin thread connecting these billions of people, and they don't know who their shepherd is. They know his name, supposedly, but they don't know what he looks like, or what he really wants, or how best to follow him. If they did, they wouldn't be divided.
