Do not take offense to this but if everyone was athiest, the world would be a better place.
Josh.. seriously , your statement are is like blaming the guns for killing people . And we will live in peace if there is are no guns in this world .
Being athiest or theist doesnt makes make things better or worst worse , its not fair that you blame the religion for all things that happen in this world .
I thought you are were smarter than this....
It isn't religion that's bad.
It's the fact that multiple religions usually don't go all that well together.
Not every conflict/problem in the world is caused by religion, but there are a lot of them that are caused by religion.
I can completely understand joshiee's statement.
You are right, theist or atheist doesn't matter.
Open mindedness does, and a lot of people tend to be very close minded about stuff.
Not saying all religious people are close minded, but most of the really devoted are.
