Organized religion has ALWAYS been the bain of peace and prosperity. From executing "heretics" that thought the world was round to millions of deaths during the crusades, it has always been a thorn in humanity's side.

The growing intolerance of the world for religious extremism will shift the tide of this nonsense.
