the main basis for religion is faith, you believe in something that cannot be proven or observed...
*shrug*
A lot of science can't yet be proven, either. Theories and such. Yet the scientific community regards them as true. Last I checked, it's still the Theory of Relativity, not the Law of Relativity, and the Theory of Evolution, not the Law of Evolution. (Mind you, both make a lot of sense to me, and until I see evidence to the contrary, I'll assume they're valid. Whether it's just blind science, or the way God chose to run the universe is an exercise I leave to greater minds than mine.)
the world would be much better off without religion
I strongly disagree, but that's another post for another time.
While I understand that this topic is pretty sensitive, and you may want to remain anonymous, I'd honestly like to know who you are. :-)
