Your arguement is flawed. Where then did the original idea for religion evolve from. Someone somewhere had to originate the idea from some observance. It's impossible that all belief in any god ever is always coerced, that's an absolutist statement and is inaccurate. Without the Bible I would still have some idea of a designer or creator, and that would be my God. I also in fact do not believe that all other religions are inheritly false or derived from deception. I'm not implying that one is completely satisfied by religion, I for one am never completely fufilled or satisfied. Nor am I saying that I am without resentment 100% of the time, I'm human and that's a near impossibility. Please restate
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
