No, literalist, fundamentalist Christianity is a threat and always has been, other forms are not at all dangerous, they keep their followers in line very well.
They have a moral base, but yet keep to themselves and don't fight that which has nothing to do with religion.
Science stays out of religious questions for that very reason, they cannot fight religion with science, and they know it.
Just as religion cannot fight science with religion, too bad that literalist, fundamentalist Christians don't know it.
They are two different things.
Religion is based on faith, science is based on verifiable scientific evidence.

Take evolution out of science and we all get along. Add evolution and it becomes religion automatically. Yes, Christianity will always be a threat to evolution as it should be.

Religion is based on faith, science is based on verifiable scientific evidence.LOL. You've never met too many scientists I take it. Evolution is faith-based, counting on their god, man, to prove it.
From your posts, I see that you are a gnostic, just another word for a pagan
