was to blame for WW2 ?
The world is undergoing serious financial problems , but how would you say that religion is to blame for them ?
At the moment with the disastrous weather in much of the south of England many are saying that it is part of the problem caused by global warming . How would you say that global warming is to be blamed on religion ?

Is this becoming a thread wander?
I like folk with lots of questions (it's part of what i use judge them),
This may not answer them all,but have you heard of Christopher Hitchens or Richard Dawkins? have a look at "God is not Great" and "The God Delusion". You may come away with a different take on 'religion'.
