A friendly religious discussion with theists without any fallacies!

RE: A friendly religious discussion with theists without any fallacies!
It's logical to say that we don't know. But assumptions made there after have to be logical.

Now as adults, we can use this thing in our brains called thinking. If we were to teach religion to fully grown adults, indoctrination wouldn't be possible. And therefore ending majority of religions.

There would however be some cases where a very few people believe in some "forces" and "higher powers" but there wouldn't be any violence and rules and other complications of the religions we use to keep children (and then adults once they're indoctrinated it is near impossible to overcome, hats off to those that are able to overcome it though) in line.

As adults and a social species, we need morality, we have evolved this morality and were able to grow exponentially as a species because of it. Some theists might wrongfully and unknowingly claim "hey without god and the threat of hell, how are we gonna be moral and not just kill and steal everything from eachother?" Which is just an ignorant (for lack of a better word) statement. As most murderers are on fact religious but lets not get into the statistics and pissing contests.

Therefore the logical assumption should be atheism, at least until we can confirm what exactly is going on and why we are here, if we are even able to figure it out before extinction.
