I think the greatest immorality that exists in the world today stems from people being dishonest about knowing if there is a god or not, and what said God likes and dislikes.
If you could lie and say you know there is a God, when not a single person in history has been able to provide objective evidence to support this theory, then there is no limit to your dishonesty and jaded world views in my eyes. There will never be peace and justice when people can lie about such a sacred topic.
The founding fathers were smart enough to know that religion and government needed to be separated, and for good reason. That is the only truly interesting point in regards to the founding father's faith. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- "There is no such thing as laziness.

Morality is not contingent on religion to exist. Therefore religion only detracts from the purity of morality. |
