Is the world a better place without christians?

I'm going to say yes, because the world would be a better place without the ignorance and barbarism that is religion in general. Having said that, the greatest threat to humanity in the present is undoubtedly Islam. If it comes down to us or them, as it looks more and more like it's going to, worrying about Christians when you have Muslims on your doorstep threatening to drag us all back to the stone age, would be like ignoring a bullet hole in your face while trying to pull a sliver out of your finger.

so you think it is better to direct your frustration with Christianity due to the damage caused by this one particular religion by removing them from the world? Think about it this way, the war between Israel and Palestine is being fought over right now because of the very thing you believe is true. Palestine wants Israel off the face of the planet just as much as Israel wants Palestine off the face of the planet. The malice between these to countries is created by one of them thinking the world would be a better place with out the other, and it has created many many problems for not only them but surrounding countries as well. Aggression is not the answer tolerance is.

Aggression is not the answer tolerance is.

This statement is wasted on me. I'm not a theist and therefore have no desire to kill anyone for being a homosexual, for being a woman, for having irrational beliefs based on a primitive book of nonsense that is different from my own irrational beliefs based on a different primitive book of nonsense, or simply because God told me to.

Those people, theists, are the people you should lecture.

i MEAN SERIOUSLY people here are behond ridiculous. People strive to kill us and people who hate christians arent going to say that part are they. Muslims want to wipe out all of israel and always have and you tell me christians are violent! First of all there are christians who are wolves in sheeps clothing. And if christians are supposively violent im sorry they arent christian! They are lyers.

war is not what atheist are trying for. its just a though on what the world would look like if everyone or less people were Christian. Or if the myths/truth (depends on your belief) was never made up/gained in a dream by people with unstable mental issues that had motives and bias. Your argument is an attempt to draw peoples attention to the idea that what would it look like if atheist started killing Christians? Though if it ever did happen i would be the other way around. I dont enjoy religion, but i dont hate that people belief it unless their beliefs infringe upon my or others.

The world would be a better place without the ignorance of religion, period. We live in a time where we have access to the accumulated knowledge and technology that allows us to answer question we would never have even thought to ask as recently as three centuries ago and yet such an overwelming amount of people choose to live in self-imposed ignorance, to take comfort in myths and stories, archaic legends. It truly is sad that yet most of us still don't comprehend the true nature of what we do know - as fact, not faith - or as truth, as opposed to wish-fufillment of truth.

All religions are ideologically ( see koran old & new testament) and historically criminal and destructive. No religion is needed for the determination of right

or wrong. The world would indeed better without religion, and that includes

secular religions such as communism and nazism. Independence from

absolutes is a sign of human maturity and courage.

I am basing my argument on the Catholic branch of Christianity with which I am familiar as my family are all (or once were) Catholic. Besides the kiddie fiddling and pedophilia that seems to be rampant and almost institutionalized in its frequency I have a big problem with several things.

For starters the church milks an obscene amount of money from the general public whilst returning little or almost none of it in the form of aid.

Secondly they pay no tax and yet they have the audacity to pass a collection plate around twice every mass. If you don't contribute that Ole' Catholic guilt.

Argument simplified is that Christianity is all take and no give unless it is an alter-boy that they are giving it to.

Depends what kind of Christians, as there are so many factions. Some are harmless, some are useful and some are violent terrorist/criminal fronts. For example, The Jehovah’s witness sect is fairly harmless if you know how to handle them. The Christian convents are the basis from which modern schooling has developed and it’s where curriculum based teaching probably originated. The banking system was also first developed by the Christian Templars as a means of moving money around securely for use elsewhere. Then you’ve the IRA and Lords Army one is a criminal paramilitary group the other a child soldiers mercenary network. All are Christian but which would you rather have?

This is a pointless assertion. Christianity has wreaked the most havoc than any single religion, look at the history. Like every other organized religion, Christianity has done a lot more damage than it has done good. The world would be a better place without believers in any religion, and by the same token, without Christians.

This simply is not true. Christianity itself has not wreaked havoc. People who claim to be Christian have. Yes, there is a large difference.

Christianity has wreaked the most havoc than any single religion, look at the history.

I truly doubt this. Islam has certainly done more to harm the world. And to be perfectly honest, I have looked at "the history" and there seems to be no indication whatsoever of Christians wreaking more havoc than Muslims.

The world would be a better place without believers in any religion,

How could you say this? Ever heard of Stalin? Atheists are a minority right now, so naturally they have not killed as many people. But I would be very skeptical about this statement.

... and then a large portion of christians choose to take this to mean things counter to this like giving people with AIDS condoms is a sin, that being gay should be illegal, that tragedies and natural disasters are acts of god and punishment for not being christian enough.

Then in this fevered state, they take the next step and decide for themselves that in order to love all people, all people should be christian

which usually just turns into annoying glassy-eyed cult behavior where christians go around beating their silly book into everyone's life,

but sometimes it turns into burning witches and starting holy wars.

Less obvious, but perhaps worse, christians take on an anti-science, anti-intellectual stance, whereby they elect officials, and vote for propositions that actually ban things like stem cell research which would actually lead to a better world.

Instead of putting thought into decisions, a large portion of christians base decision strictly on who yells Jesus the loudest, making the world a worse place for the majority. Making them easy to manipulate, and even more so because of their odd disdain for all things intellectual.

Christians clamour and shout "just think like us and everyone will be happy" and in attempting to force such in so many cases, they actually make everyone quite a bit less-happy.

You claim on the other side that one is only really christian if the hold themselves to the standard of loving everyone and trying to make the world a better place,

if this is the case, I do not know a single christian.

Religions is a blight. The world would be a better place without it, christianity specifically is one of the more annoying and hateful religions.

I don't think Christianity is the root of this world's problems, but a lot of atrocities have been committed by Christians or for seemingly "Christian" causes. But such is the case for other religions as well, Christianity is just the most popular label. The world could do well without stupid people who take their beliefs the wrong way, and if it is not Christianity, it is something else. People have found ways to dislike/disagree with each other despite religion. So my answer is no. The world would be a better place without stupid people in general, we have hypocrite/militant "Christians" in every religion. It's not just us.

Side: Of Course Not

To say that the world is better without Christians is at heart the same to say that the world is better without white people, Islamic people, African Americans, Asians, etc. It is discrimination. And if you are against discrimination then it is hypocritical to assume that the world would be a better place without Christians.

It is fair to say that Christianity has had its fair share of damage in the world throughout the ages. But so has Judaism, Islam, and any other religion that I can think of. So to direct one's frustration (because of actions taken that particular religious sect)against a certain religion is just what starts the damage all the aforementioned religions have caused. It is fighting fire with fire, and when you fight fire with fire the fire only gets bigger.

All in all I believe it is more fair to say that the world would be a better place without discrimination.

Without the Abrahamic religions - or rather, as the debate title suggests, Christianity - would not paganism be commonplace as it were prior to Christ?

That is, Rome, Germannia, Britannia, America; each of these places - and many more, if not all - were pagan prior to the advent of Christianity. What makes you think that modern society would be atheistic, rather than polytheistic such as was prevalent in pre-Christian Europe and present-day Asia?

Good logic. It's not quite right though because Jewish refers both to a group of people and a religion, while Christian is only a state of mind. One is born Jewish just as they are born white, black, with red hair, etc. This cannot be said for Christians.

I would say the world would be better without either religion, but of the two Christianity historically and presently has been far more destructive.

Atheists (unlike theists) when we refer to the world being a better place without a religion, do not mean eliminating a group of people, we simply mean we wish people would stop believing silly shit.

Oh... ok…(edit) :) That is not what I meant to say. I was just referring to the religion… (edit)

I believe that the world will be a better place without religion. However, eliminating Christianity is taking out just one problem out of a lot of others.

Would the world be a better place without Christianity? We would have to define better. There will still be the conflicts that didn’t involve the Christian religion. Probably, the removal of Christianity will develop new conflicts between other religions.

So, my side not is that the world would be a worse place without Christianity. What I am saying, is that removing Christianity is not removing the root of the problem. Eventually, another plant will grow and take its place…

The problem with this debate is that it specifically targets one religion. Why not Islam, Judaism and every other religion. So lets just replace "Christians" with religion and go with that.

Since the dawn of human kind, when our ancestors first discovered the killing path with rocks and bones, blood has been spilled in the name of everything, from god, to justice, to psychotic rage. Take god out and you still have many other reasons why people are ignorant and barbaric. Christianity, like most religions out there, try to bring morality to a immoral world. The problems is that when a belief gets big, there will be some people that will twist the belief for their own benefits. Just look up the crusades and you can see all the examples of corruption.

Christianity, like any other religion or belief, is a vehicle of change. Whether that change is for the better or worse is shaped by how the believers interpret and execute the teachings of their texts. Science is great as it is based on trying to find every single detail about everything that can be explored. With science, many advancements have benefited humanity such as medicines and improved agriculture which extended our life expectancy and quality. It also gives the possibility that some theories can be proven wrong. But with great advancements comes the great disasters that are created.

With science, weapons have evolved from stones and bones, to swords and bows, to guns and artillery, to battleships and aircraft carriers. Lets not forget the ICBM which can reign nuclear death from above within 20 minutes or so. With science, we have slowly been destroying earth with the waste and sewage that we have created from our industry.

So what I am trying to say is that religion is not the problem, people are. In order for humanity to survive to meet future that is to come, we must be able to learn from our past successes and failures so that we may repeat the good and avoid the bad. But this never happens because we are not perfect. It doesn't matter if some believe that god exists and some believes that there is no god; we all are ignorant and barbaric to a certain degree.

Even though I have no love for Christianity, and I do believe the world would be better off if religion is abandoned in totality, if we single out one religion, another would just take its place, or the remainder would expand. So no, the specifics would change, but I don't think I can say the world would be "better."

No. I am an agnostic but i believe that Christians are one of the reasons why we have temporary peace. Approximately 33% of world's population are Christians. As long as Christianity teaches good moral values (well, some values are stupid though), they will continue to make our world better. Just sit back and watch them do the work.

If you pay attention to what is really going on and open your eyes to the cruel reality of human nature you would understand how desperate we are in need of a savior.

I would say no, and here are my reasons:

First, So may people on this site appear to equate Christianity with ignorance and a denial of science. However, how many people truly understand the role of Christendom in the development of science? Issac Newton, Nicolaus Copernicus, Louis Pasteur, and many other scientists did not see a conflict between their faith in God and their scientific endeavors. Few would deny their contributions to scientific and technological progress.

Second, we should not forget the amount of money and volunteer work done by Christians. While atheists also volunteer and help the needy, we should not forget that the precedent was set by Christians who sought to be "good Samiaritans."

Third, the abolition movements in Great Britain and the United States was driven by Christians. William Wilberforce, famous for his work to abolish slavery in England, was driven by his Christian beliefs.

Christianity does not need to be destroyed, but rather the people behind it need to be slapped and taught that the basic meaning and god's will is pretty much just one golden rule that everyone knows but ignores.

TREAT OTHERS THE WAY YOU WOULD WANT TO BE TREATED.

THe people behind Christianity are usually insane, over-zealous, ingorant, and things along those lines. What they need is tolerance, and common sense. The minority of Christian people are tolerant, and understand that the world is different than percieved by the bible.

It's not the religion, it's the people.

Side: of course not

No Christians means no America. America wouldn't have started without Christians. The Pilgrims only came here for religious freedom and the founders only came here to teach others the Word of God.

No... A World will be a better place only if humanity is better. You can eliminate all the religions if you like... That will make zero difference! Cuz it is not the religions with the problem. It is the human mind, The prejudice. Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism are all beautiful religions with different notions and a few controversial believes made a hundred years back owing no validity. There is no point eliminating nothing unless the change is with in!

Side: Of Course Not

Of course not, I am surrpriesed on how close this debate is. Its probebly because perople who think the world a better place without christians look this up more. I hope that everyone has a fairly nice day! Mabey a bad day if you had it coming.

Side: of course not

Plenty of Christians are out helping people and feeding the hungry.
