Religious people do not kill, they are not allowed to kill. If they kill they are breaking their religions rules and thus do not truly believe in it. They may claim to be muslim or christian but if they engage in combat and try to kill other human beings they are no longer members of that religion, making them agnostic or atheist. Without religion to keep the good people in their moral standing this world would have died out centuries ago. |

Because without God it would not be created. But, if the earth was without God and the things He has tried to show us, then it would just be the stone age.

Atheists are materialists, by in large, so I think an atheist world would be a world of scientific progress.

I think an atheist world is unrealistic, a more likely outcome would be a kind of passive cultural agnosticism born out of general antipathy to the questions of God. |
