Its too easy to blame religion. I have no religious inclination whatsoever. I have not been schoole din any religion and my family have no background as religious people. Agnostic or athiest, take your pick.
But the problem I have in contemplating a world without religion is that without it, there is no greater force than the most powerful human being. The person at the top is answerable to nobody. There is no morality without a guiding entity who asks only for our faith and adherence to the rules.
Granted, this idea of religion has fractured so much that they all have different rules and each has the mission to dominate and defeat the other, but fuck... can you imagine a world where someone like Mugabi was the most powerful man? And he answered to nobody? Much as the Chinese govenment answer to no-one and have no concept or care for the rights of the individual?
Fuck that... let the majority keep their Gods. I'm even happy to become a preacher if it helps.
