When was the LAST war to protect our freedom ? They send our kids to fight for GOLD, OIL, and DRUGS. (GOD). They tell our troops the are fighting for GOD & COUNTRY. Bullshit, what GOD wants wars? If your religion requires you to hate someone, you new a new religion!

I will have to go for wars here. Religion is terrible in soooo many ways, but it is not the sole cause of war, death and destruction. So we get rid of religion does not mean we get rid of racism, poverty, bigotry, sadism, etc. At least by ending wars the world has some time to recuperate and if war is not an option, then to find other ways of hating each other or finally working together for a common good. There are plenty of good religious folk out there who would never dream of killing someone or sponsoring someone to do so. The fact that they currently do it is out of ignorance and not their innate will to cause pain to others. This is obvious but No War = Peace, and in peace all people have the chance to flourish.

Most wars are started because of religious beliefs, and many more non-war atrocities are committed in the name of religion. Without religion, almost all wars would be ended as well as millions of hate crimes, atrocities, and unjust cruelties throughout human existence. We wouldn't have this cheeto-fingered, anus-mouthed, possum-haired insult to idiots everywhere leading this country.

Imperialist fought to have access to other countries resources, religion dogma helps this purpose but if it was possible I would choose to end envy, corruption and fear.

Most wars are fought due to religions while god is always on both sides!

I'll be in the huge minority here, but ending all wars. It is true that most wars have been fought along religious lines, or at least religion was used as an excuse by those in positions of power, but the bloodiest and most savage wars have been fought over political ideals and a general mood of scapegoatism (is this a word?). Remember that Hitler was going after Judaism as a race of people, not as a religion.

Ending all religion would eliminate one of the largest sources of division in our world, which would in turn tend to eliminate much of the conflict in our world. Too bad you only allowed two choices.

Because without religion you wouldn't have an excuse to go to war.

Religion of course. That would reduce the number of pointless wars by probably 75%. When people start realizing that this is all that we have, people would hopefully start getting along a little better, to advance all of humanity.

religion through out history has been the focal point for most wars and the excuse for many others

Neither of which really make any sense. How exactly do we define war? Would there no longer be any disagreements between people? Would there never be physical altercations between individuals? or does this only apply on an international scale, in which case not much would change overall. and without religion people would still be gullible and superstitious about other things just as they are now. The only difference would be in where they place their dogmas. The problems are not war and religion, but rather violence and dogmatism.

I voted for ending all religions because if we did that many wars would have no reason for happening.
I know it wouldn't stop everything, but it would put a serious dent in them.

It may sound odd, but it would be my hope that without religion, we would have no wars.

Religion is only annoying to me, it could be something that only has to affect those who wish to delude themselves. War how ever sucks it effect everyone not only those involved in it but, those future generation still left to deal with the unresolved issues it created that often lead to yet more war.
I would vote to rid the world of both because religion stands at the root of most wars, but that option was not offered.

There will always be war but if you get rid of all religions at least there will be less war.
