Default Re: Religion DOES Do More Good Than Harm

I have thought this subject through over and over, "does religion make the world a better place?" and I reached the conclusion that it depends on the religion.
IMO a religion like christianity has way too many downsides, those downsides mostly include the denial of our own sexuality and how human beings really work.
I think that the ideal religion would be one that had all the secular values but backed up with a nice invisble man in the sky.
I like being an atheist because I got rid of specific christian BS out of my head( being gay is bad, etc) but if I could believe in a God with secular values it would be really awesome.
