I can't really imagine a world without religion, because to me religion and God are inextricably bound together. You can't have one without the other, so if I imagine a world without religion, I imagine there would be no world at all. There would only be a heaven.

A question that most people (athesists etc) seem to ask and most seem to agree for me its kind of both ways yes if the was no relgion some wars wouldnt exisit eg cursades but it doesnt mean that wars for power wouldnt occur there is no good without evil you will always have some1 wanting to change the world so i dont think it matter if there was relgion or not bad stuff always happens

now what i am curious in if any of you ever thought of that learning the history of your relgion weather you had these thoughts or maybe you wished your relgion was a bit different in the past it would be better today.

please post your thoughts

Weeeeeell

Consider that christianity is NOT a religion! It is relationship with Jesus Christ, not a set of rituals or behaviours

Consider that most of good things done socially in the past history have been done by Christians!

So..

without religion as in without committing ot a set of rituals or behaviours to please a deity otherwise they are condemned- then the world would be better place..

but without Jesus-- this world would be forever doomed and there would be nothign we could do about it.

I think we would have more wars and more Chaos. Religion has given us much of our morals and a reason to live.Without either of these some people would live like they had no reason. There would be more suicides and we cant forget without God we would have nothing to hold evil back from taking over us completely.

yeah, that is true. Many societies have collapsed when their religion was taken away from them

Men make wars not religion if there was no religion there would still be war. Man at his core is against anything that is not like himself or differentbecause he is insecure in who he is, there can be only one! Haha religion & differing beliefs do see. To be good things to fight I've but the pride of man wages wars regardless of these things. There is only peace in Jesus Christ and it won't be manifest until the restoration and consummation of all things ;)

If you have studied the bible in Jesus's days, you would see how he felt about religious people. for me being a Christian is not a religion it is a personal relationship with God and you just know when you have that kind of relationship a name or not does not matter, it is what your heart feels and no matter what is going on you feel secure and safe in that kind of love that no other can provide. It is truly the greatest love story. I am pretty blessed in every area of my life. the verse - eyes have not seen, ears have not heard nor has it entered the heart of men what God has in store for them that loves him, always causes me to wonder - it is a gift to love God and for me it is enough, then a storage of whatever you want comes with it. my dear friend if you will try this love you will understand the spritual or non physical of things, you will walk in the spirit, you will have things come to you just by thinking of them and it will all be good because you will be in harmony with God Jesus said he came that our joy may be full...live in joy...b
