If I'm not mistaken religion was started to do almost exactly what has been brought up here. "Religion is an opiate of the masses"-dont remember who said it but it was said. I can definately see where there would be less crime and more people with stronger morals if everyone followed their (if one) religion as it tells them to carry out their life. I personally was raised in baptist church and grew up best friends with a ministers son who is going on to become a preacher himself. I do not consider myself a member of any religion but I do beleive in humanity and karma to a point. Anyone ever experienced what people call "cali love" when in california or "southern charm" here in georgia? If you have then you have experienced humanity. The part of religons that get me are the people that are hipocrits and dont actually practice what they say they believe.
