Re: If religion had never existed

Quote:
Are you talking about religion in general or christianity in particular?

Most communities regardless of how cut off from the rest of the world they are (or were) managed to invent their own religions. In some cases these were very peaceful beliefs, tolerant of other people and provided guidelines as to how people should behave. However in some extreme cases (Mayans/Incas/Aztecs amongst others) the religion included making sacrifices to their gods, including human ones. These extreme religions can be hard to take from our standpoint, and a case could be made for humanities sake to go to war with believers of them to prevent more needless death.... but who are we to say that they were wrong? What right does anyone have to tell someone else what they can and cannot believe?
