    All religions should be banned.
    The only positive about religion is that it pacifies the stupid and ignorant.
    This obviously is not religions purpose at the moment.
    So stick all your religions and beliefs up your arse.

    Damn right!
    Religion with its "loving Gods" only caused humans pain and suffering and brought thousand of years of ignorance. Religion is racism.

    Go HonkyDick!

    No no no, Don't ban religion! It may seem stupid to some (myself included) but it does exactly what you say it does, pacifies it's believers. We don't need a bunch of people running around not knowing what to do with themselves b/c they no longer have a god to control them. Some people need the control...
    Of course, we could just line 'em all up and shoot 'em execution style..

    Go for it. I'd really like to see you try.

    That might actually bring extinction ....

    I think burning their churches would be less harsh.

    I don't have a problem with their beliefs, but why do they have to push it on everyone else. Seems like every other week some nut is knocking on the door trying to sell me god.
    I'm gonna chase the next one off with the garden hose

    Past attempts to prohibit something without popular support have resulted in driving the activity underground, and/or creating abnormal and artificial conditions.

    Banning religion will be much like trying to cure a disease by treating the symptoms, i.e. the problem always comes back, and often much worse than before.

    The ultimate solution is to remove the root cause of religion, which is obvious.

    Fight fire with fire.

    Religion at its core is ideas. Use the power of ideas.

    Gentle persuasion is the only way to extinguish religion's dark ways. Banning religion could never work. Convincing people through careful debate and thoughtful discussion is the only cure.

    Religion is a very shaky concept at best, more powerful ideas abound by the bushelful.

    It helps if you don't look at such large ideas as religions in such an immediate context, but that point is actually beside the point because the whole of your post is absolutely right. In fact, the only thing people have to worry about is that it's not a case of out of the frying pan and into the broiler oven. Not so much in an eternal-condemnation sort of way, but by my abuse of your metaphor it helps to point out the fact that we're not actualy trying to cook the frogs.

    "Fight Ideas with Ideas" reminds me of Ben Hur?

    forget ideas, just drive all the religious folk into the ocean and let their god(s) handle them.

    If the religious persons who travel door to door have really got you bothered, just do what I did. Answer the door in the nude one time and invite them in to the orgy you say you are hosting. For some reason, that was the last time the Jehovah's Witnesses came to my house.... I kinda miss them, they always brought a good laugh.

    So, just out of curiosity, once you've banned everything, what will people do?

    Religion is a product of human imagination and perhaps lack of intelligence.

    We create these "supreme beings" to explain what we cannot explain through observation. Banning religion would require you to ban human imagination and enforce thought control.

    Besides, there are some good things to learn from every religion.

    The world is my Country and science my religion.
