I think the real problem is that sensible people anywhere in the world are not problems while jerks, bigots, and aggressive dullards are a problem anywhere in the world. Getting rid of religion isn't going to eliminate jerks, bigots and aggressive dullards, it will just lead to more jerks, bigots and aggressive dullards who are atheist.

While I'm an atheist and would be happy enough to see religions done away with, I don't believe for a second that it's going to solve the problem of some people just not being very bright or friendly.
