So what you're saying is that just because the problem has been a persistant one, it's not a problem at all?Frozen Donkey Wheel2 said:
You sure know how to dazzle people with your intelligence...
The advent of religion from "privately find your spirituality and your place in this world" to "do what I say this two-thousand-year-old book tells you to or you are not fit to be considered human".
Religion in itself is benign. It's the exploitation, commercialization and weaponization of religion that's taken things out of hand.

Well, there´s a lot. The ideia that a ethnicity is superior to other because one needs slaves, nuclear bombs and absolute monarchy.
Organized religion itself isn´t so bad, it gets titscrazy bad when we join in an Inquision force, with the right to do whatever tehy want to people who don´t believe the exact same thing they believe.
But Mankind´s worse mistake is: inventing fox news. Hands down.

Erm "never been deployed"? Hiroshima? Nagasaki? Ring any bells?HT_Black said:
Also, without nuclear weapons or the research that went into them, we wouldn't have nuclear power. You know that power source that's pretty much the best one in terms or relative stability, enviromental-friendlyness and effectiveness.

The image in my head, of Ms Kerrigan telling me that sentence straight faced looking at me while I hope that my PSI Shield gets up in time left me laughing... a lot...The Code said:
And yes, Religion is pretty much outdated now but not the problem I think.
The main problem is freedom of speech and global ignorance, so the biggest mistake was to have freedom of speech while keeping the populace dumb. Either abolish freedom of speech or make people smarter.
You can't have both. That's the worst thing we allowed so far.
The loudest dumbasses always win and that is really, really, REALLY *B*A*D*.
Metroid: Other M. Hands down.
Really though, I think it's this politically correct, oversensitive BULLSHIT. There just words and the intentions behind them should be whats judged, not the exact wording. It's BULLSHIT.

Well, considering that the religious pundits of this thread seems to think that it's okay to say that by claiming that religion is humanity's worst mistake, you're just as bad as Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin, I think it's only fair to make a similar argument.JamesStone said:
Fox News would never have been as bad as it is if it weren't for religion. I mean which side of the political spectrum does the staff at Fox News mostly favour? Oh, that's right! Right-wing republicans!
And what is the right-wing republican faction's primary source of inspiration for pretty much every argument they make? The BIBLE!
So if mankind hadn't been STUPID enough to preserve religion as long as it did, the Fox News network might've actually been a respectable news network. But the religious influence makes it into what it is so...
In the name of fashion, I accept your challenge! You and your inferior footware shall rue the day you ever decided to embrace such a gaudy choice of style!CM156 said:
While humanity has made mistakes they were all required to make a more better race. Without the nuke being dropped when it was we may have had a apocalypse. Without weapons we would not be able to defend ourselves from each other and animals. Without war well if we ever encountred a alien race and they where hostile well we would be screwed.

Roughly 49-78,000,000 deaths were caused by Mao. So yeah I think it is fair to say Mao has Religion beat as even at that it is unfair to consider it one entity in this context unless you want to count Dictatorships or Wars as one big group as well. Most killings that use/blame/people think are caused by Religion as the motive usually have fuck all to do with Religion(The Troubles, Crusades).Housebroken Lunatic said:
We would be killing each other just fine without Religion we would just use varying philosophies, race, stereotypes, differences in spelling, etc. We have no shortage of bullshit reasons for covering the real reasons land, money, power, influence.
Very well, inventing organized, dictatorship like religion that eventually lead to the creation of Fox News was humanity worst mistake. 50-50, no problem.Housebroken Lunatic said:
