Would we still have a problems like homophobia, sexisim & racism? (I'm assuming you view these 'ism's as problems)
I mean religion in the sense of a book with a set of outdated rules.
Is it human nature to hate?
I have a feeling that if we didn't have a set of rules or commandments we might have avoided a lot of pish throughout history. Just a hunch (not being sarcy, by the way).

I've often thought that people will always have an inclination to do the exact opposite of what they are told to do, i know i did when i was a kid/young adult.
From this i think that if there hadn't been these rules set in stone (pun intended) then maybe over the centuries there wouldn't have been so many reoccurences of people doing the exact opposite of what their beliefs told them to do. i.e. love thy neighbour.
Just a thought
