Re: Religion DOES Do More Good Than Harm
Nah, I don't buy it.
The big truth is that we don't know how society would be if religion was all but 'extinct', we only have the version now where some 85% of the world adheres to some form of religion. Where I come from about 50% of the populace are atheist, 50% theist and maybe a fifth of them practicing theists - I honestly am not seeing any large lack of happiness.
I'm sure we could have focused all those endless supplies of money that goes into religion in something worthwhile, like hedonism.
