No. Inform the actions of the believers which then impact their surroundings to some degree or another? Yes. And that impact can, has, and still does hurt others, sometimes extremely so. This is a pretty narrow view which fails to take into account the positive benefits of religion. For thousands of years religion has been used to keep societies in order. Societies that would have probably fallen into absolute chaos without something holding it together. In any given community I'd still say the positives of a local religion probably out weigh the negatives. --- END OF LINE <cite>BeyondWalls posted [p:929339094] in Atheists p...
