... so we would all live in peace and respect each others despite our differences of race, age, gender or sex preferance.

It is against personal freedom to ban religion. You can, however, try and fight the violence that sometimes emerges from religion. :)
Rehab is for quitters.
What respect or peace would you have after banning most people to believe in their most sacred books and dreams ?! First of all, you can't ban someone's heart from believing. Second, this is the opposite of peace,love and respect. You can always ban any act of violence or hate speech from people who claim to be following their religions. You are already banning any act of violence, regardless of its origin or motive.
sharereligion is just another excuse to wage war against eachother. Ban relegion and we will simply find another excuse. so I don't agree with no relegion = peace.
However I do think relegion is stupid. all miracles that people said where cause by god have been proven to be just science so imo the only thing you can realy believe in is sience. Relegion has its social values tho but we have to learn to respect ethics by ourself and not be needing any sort of religion for it.
sex preferance: people nowdays are against gay marriage cause of religion but tbh I'm against all the hypes around all the gayness around the world just because its not meaned to be. It's just another flaw of nature and say what you wanne say about it but it's still a fault in the brain.
But yeh these people exist and live among us so why shouldn't they be able to be together.
I'm just annoyed that in every tv serie, in every commercial etc there have to be a gay couple.
Burn all religions to the ground!
shareCertainly not banned, that would only make them attractive. We just have to grow out of them. A nice way to start is by detaching morality from religion. We may start with morality 101 (behave to others just like we want them to behave to us) and build on top of that. Because, as Arthur Clarke once put it :
"The greatest tragedy in mankind's entire history may be the hijacking of morality by religion".
Religious morality is fake morality because by adopting it you do not hurt others because you do not actually want to but to avoid going to hell; and you help the old lady cross the street not because you really want to help her, but to add +1 to your heaven score. This is not ethics, it is a reward vs punishment system, the most supreme hypocrisy and cunning I can think of.

very good point

Definitely agree with you here, I'll just add that both morality and the level of religious belief are products of society. Asking oneself what is moral is not enough, one also has to question time. What was moral 300 years ago may not be moral today (and vice versa). For religion, I generally believe as society advances and we are able to understand the word around us, religious escapism and the need to look into it for answers will cease.
There is no quick way of getting rid of it and there shouldn't be. Religion can help people.
