How can you possibly legitimate that statement?
Oh wow...that's a topic for a whole other thread, but surely you can't possibly be so naive that you're unaware of all the terrible crimes that have been and continue to be committed because of religion.

I love that statement.....has religion been reponsible for all these evil things you speak of? or is it a small minority of homo sapiens that are reponsible ?
I would say it's a relatively sizable number of people who were motivated because of their religious beliefs who have been responsable for a great deal of evil, misery, and suffering throughout human history. Hitchens and Dawkins (among others) have both discussed this in much greater length than I will go into here.
