When there is no more money. Or in other words when world become something like Star Trek where we have replicators making us what ever we want. I mean just imagine if we didn't have to work for money and didn't have to use money to buy food, shelter and new Mercedes do you honestly think there would be patriarchs and gurus worried about what people believe or not? Do you? When what you believe in doesn't reflect their bank account.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
