Just imagine - NO RELIGIONS!! What would we fight over? Would we fight at all? And please don't respond with "scriptural justifications" - there is at least one for every belief system ever devised by humans - as they ALL are.

This is too big a topic to discuss here. One must ask the question why we need religion. Why every society creates some sort of religion. Science became the new God, leading to Transhumanism and AI. The thing is, we are not just physical beings. We are spiritual beings and if we take away God, we will fill thst void with something else.

I've said many times I'm not religious. Religions are manmade and inevitably become corrupt and the cause of much bloodshed, as you say. However, getting rid of religion will not solve mankind's problems. Actually, we can't rid of our need to be connected to God. We just go about making that connection in the wrong way.

I follow Jesus, which makes me a Christian but I don't like to even use that term anymore since it has been hijacked. I can't think of a y flaw in Jesus teaching.
