Speaking of the revealed religions, like Christianity and Islam, no argument.Vor wrote:Bill Maher sums up the atheistic movement to rid the world of any mention of God like this:
We are a nation that is unenlightened because of religion. I do believe that. I think religion stops people from thinking. I think it justified crazies.
Speaking of other religions that are not revealed and do not promote idol worship, then an argument can be made in favor as those would be more like a religion of seekers and not idol worshipers. They seek the best way and admit to not having found it yet.
One of the biblical Jesus' made that distinction himself by asking us to seek God and never saying to seek him as God. Christians seem to have missed that message and chose idol worship instead.
