It may be a bit late in the discussion for me to chime in with this, but reading through the first couple pages reminded me of this: A wise old Greek playwright named Terence once said, "I am human. I consider nothing that is human to be alien to me."

All people are capable of great good, and great evil, regardless of ethnic or religious background.  We could all be Hitlers, Stalins, we could all be MLKs, Mother Theresas.  Regardless of what excuses we use to become such, this is so.

So let's stop pretending abolishing religion would do anything to change the human condition.
Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill, and every man a scribe by trade
To write the love of God above, would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky!
