Tell me 1 good deed done in the name of religion that could not have been done without religion.
There are numerous heinous deeds done in the name of religion because it told them to do it...
People are people, they will do bad and good things. But religion always makes them worse because they put themselves above others.
The religious are only persecuted by other religions and currently religions are persecuting the non believers. (Christo fascism in the USA as a prime example)
And lastly, if churches would start paying their fair share of tax. No one will need to donate ever again.
