of course it would, the catholic church gives food and water to the africans, however no condoms as they believe they are wrong, yet aids is spreading and making them become more buried in poverty. The bible doesnt make sense as it has been edited by kings and religious leaders throughout time several times and re written with different passages. Plus you cant have that quote that without the 10 commandments there would be no law, people have common sense they can make there own law. Plus without religion humanity would be hundreds of years in the future which means we could have cured cancer or aids.
