Organized religion is and has always been a blight on civilization.
Every human being on this planet is equal in that none is born inherently "better" than any other in a moral sense.
Organized religions divide the peoples of the Earth and encourage violence against non-believers. It all boils down to a children's playground argument over whose "god" is the "true" god and my "god' is better than your god. And for this stupid argument, the world has had to bear thousands of years of needless wars and conflicts.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
