Or maybe you could try improving education so that the people willingly give up religion (mostly), rather than taking away civil liberties.

Violent criminal punishment.. have more violent punishments helped to deter crime? I think you'd find that the answer is not as straightforward as you might think after careful analysis of the data.

Many highly educated people are still religious.

And I think that's fine, but the important thing is that they are able to make an informed decision.
Would this type of religious belief be tolerable to you Viv?

religion isnt bad

Its the fuking retarded ones who decide to take it one step further by being crazy about it...

People came up with religion and "gods" as a way to try and understand things they simply could not explain. Like the sun god who dragged the sun across the sky, and so on.....

Then came christianity, or the special kids in the playground. Couldnt come up with any explanation for anything at all, so they just claim GOD DID IT ALL..

We need more scientists and less preachers....

Yes, you just think that genocide should be committed because you'll believe anything that confirms your bigotry.

So whats the difference between your hatred of religion and certain groups hatred of gays?

Homosexuality doesn't impose laws that allow people to be beaten, castrated, decapitated and or horribly tortured in the middle of the street in front of children and occasionally by children.

I mean that's one small difference...

There is no such thing as an informed decision when it comes to religion.
