    Sin is the worst thing to happen in history. But thank ? for Jesus Christ! He took all the curses upon Himself, so that all who believe in Him could receive all the blessings! What a deal! Hallelujah!

    Which was introduced to the world via religious means. Therefore, religion is the worst for bringing sin into the world.

    There was no "religion" in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve knew ? face to face. They had a personal relationship with ? . But that personal relationship was lost when they disobeyed ? . Thus, sin was introduced into the world.

    Religion is mans attempt to get to ? . It was created by man in order to restore what was lost in the Garden of Eden, which was the personal relationship man enjoyed with the Creator prior to the fall.

    So with that logic then...sin created religion. Religion is founded upon sin. Religion is the worst.

    If you want to go that route, be my guest.

    Religion won't save anyways. Never has, never will.

    ? 's plan far exceeds mans attempt at "religion". Hallelujah!

    The worst thing to happen is the deism of the state. The worship of state over all leads to the the sacrifice of virtually every freedom and thought of freedom and operates on fascism. Look at China and Soviet Union. Those environments operated on a level of fascism that suppressed it people from even questioning the fallibility of the state (? ).

    it got waaaaaay worse when "organized" religion came along. It's responsible for the worst atrocities in history. That is indeed fact.

    Religion would be cool if there were only one...I'd say arrogance and a belief of superiority are the two biggest faults of man...

    maybe the misinterpretation and misuse of religion, but i don't think religion in itself is the problem. basically ignorance is the worst thing

    Unfortunately, without religion, a lot of people would fear no consequence of their actions or have a guideline for whats right/wrong

    slept on post

    religion is pointless imo ... but i recognize that it's up to each individual to decide whether or not they ascribe to the paradoxes / contradictions that come with it. living in an unfree society has the potential to do more harm than any religion ever has. but even living in a free society isn't enough, if the members of society aren't informed enough to make their own decisions on such matters then its worst than all that other ? combined.

    The radicals, who start wars because of religion, are seperated by the rest, and are not accepted. Bin Laden was dis owned by his family because of his radical views.

    Some wars are started so the people of a country can have a freedom of religion. Which is a good thing.

    It's like a white dude robbing a pharmacy for pills
    or
    A black dude shooting someone over a drug deal

    You can't let it reflect people as a whole. Saying religion starts wars is generalizing a select few who do. Religion brings more peace and harmony then violence.
