Belief is the cornerstone of ALL societies in the world. To dismiss belief is to dismiss what makes us tick.

Oh wait... you do believe in something.

I'm not dismissing my belief, I'm stating to have peace in the world we should dismiss our beliefs in public. All develop countries are trying to follow this plan, this is why we separated Church and State.

I thought I was Agnostic.... after reading terminators comments and browsing over the Christian thread I think I am more inclined to be an Atheist.

Well religion isn't for everyone, some people just can't believe something without it being proven. It took me a long time before becoming a Christian in my own terms. Atheist think we blindly follow a priest or a preacher but some believers like me study both sides and make a decision. The bible was my guide. The new testament is just amazing, Jesus most have been an amazing guy :)

And is also why separating Church and State is impossible.

A society comes together when people have a shared set of beliefs. Some of these same beliefs also are integrated in... you guessed it... religion.

So we can SAY we have separated Church from State, but doing it means going into a shitload of grey, which in democracy isn't a good thing - as a people, we sometimes mistake majority rule for unanimous rule.

So the main religion of a country has a huge influence in the going ons of the country.
