Fuck religion. Large groups of people do not know how to handle religion. Its all man-made anyways. You don't need no stupid ass koran or bible or preacher or whatever to tell you what is right & wrong. Figure it out yourself and just accept you do not know all the answers.

i agree with that einstein quote. just never put it in smart words like that

There is no such thing as a world without religion.

Since religion is a set of beliefs and practices every single person has a religion, in fact "worshipping" is of human nature, if you look at the term with an open mind that is, prophet Mohammad PBUH mentioned that some of the people of the book worship their priests, he was asked how do they worship priests and he said, by fearing them more than Allah and by following them blindly.

That is why the idea of Islam and the literal meaning of a Muslim is a person who liberates her/himself by submitting to Allah's will, because if you don't submit to Allah's will then you will definitely submit to something else and that "something else" is beneath Allah, so you might as well submit to the most high.

If you wanna know who you worship look for the thing that you consider before making any decision, or the thing that governs your decision making... things like money, pussy, public image/reputation, and so on, and by submitting to these things you become enslaved to the people that control them, for example if you submit to money you'll be enslaved to the wealthy, if you submit to pussy you'll be enslaved to women and if you submit to public image you'll be enslaved to the media... one little example... Obama submitted to his public image, he was enslaved by the media and he worshipped his public image by quitting his church and distancing himself from rev. Jermiah.

Bottomline is yall are worshippers and therefore there is no such thing as a world without a religion.

i like how the dude takes a HYPOTHETICAL question... starts off by not answering the question hypothetically....takes a half-ass vague definition of religion ("set of beliefs and practices")....incorrectly and illogically applies that definition by expecting it to be true of every specific use of the words "sets of beliefs and practices"....then tells you to have an open mind....then immediately after telling you to have an open mind directs you towards what seems to be the one & only way to live (Islam)...then transitions into a full out advertisement of islam....then uses his religious beliefs to judge & criticize the president....somehow from all of the above, the conclusion is made that we are all worshippers....& the jumps into the amazing, insightful grand finale that there is no such thing as a world without religion.....all without ever addressing the simple hypothetical question asked, "Would the world be better with or without religion?"

That is a great example of how people cannot handle religion. For many people, it just blocks out all common sense & simple thought process.

I think there's two perspectives...for one I agree that it makes people blind, causes so many fucking wars, and is one of the prime sources of corruption. But it also makes people some people calm and hopeful...I see alota poor people that if they weren't into religion, they would probably be out here killing everybody...but they just rely on faith and hope for a better tomorrow.

So I really couldn't answer the question...our world is shit, but I'm cool in it, I can't change it so I might as well adapt to it.

As of right now religion is for slow minded people. 7, for example.

lol, No the world would not be better without religion...
not to say that the world right now is as best as can be, I believe it would be a better place if religion was better understood by people, I think it is absurd and shallow of us to blame religion for all this bloodshed, the blame should be on the elite who use religion to manipulate others to fight and kill each other... ethnic differences are highlighted by the elite to have different ethnic groups killing each other yet you cannot blame the color of a person's skin for the action that the person has committed... so whether religion exists or not manipulation of the masses is the real enemy.

As of now a large majority of the world is embracing atheism assuming that religion is the cause of distress but distress will continue and then people will assume that Atheism is the cause of distress and they will return to God or create new God a new religions and the cycle continues and distress will prevail until we wake up.

"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind"
Albert Einstein.

Not that I don't agree with your quotation, but ethical behavior is only a part of religion, and if religion is not needed for that then it is needed for other purposes.

[Kizzang]

What is it needed for?

[Bluntman!?!]

This nigga rashad is retarded do not expect an intelligent response son.

[GunMetal]

[Kizzang]
