Trebuchet MS Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Couldn't help but wonder what a world without religion would look like. I've tried picturing one but had a lot of trouble doing so. Would it be roughly the same, just with religion substituted wherever possible? Or will society be significantly different, for better or worse? In case of flame war, spits and marshmallows will be provided to all audience members.

Mutant Monster RAEG-HAPYP Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 People would probably just find another way to justify horrible actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchermitcher Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 People need things to believe and put faith in. If it's not religion then it's simply going to be something else that'll eventually become a religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dova Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 A religion is an organized collection of beliefs, cultural systems, and world views that relate humanity to an order of existence. (Wikipedia) I think religion is a part of humanity, and unless we end up in some dystopian society where are beliefs are not our own we will have religion in some form. So, yeah, a world without religion is probably one it is manually kept at bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCR_CAT Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Like Raeg said. It's worth noting that the idea of Religion in and of itself isn't an evil thing; it's always the people using such things to justify actions and such. With or without religion, those people will still exist and they'll always find something else to justify their actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
