You made a leap from my original statement by comparing deaths from organized religion to deaths by atheism. I have no arguement regarding the misery caused by atheist totalitarian regimes, but that's a different topic from what I was originally addressing.

My point wasn't that religious motives cause MORE suffering than atheist control motives, I'm just saying it's one more reason that people go to war and suffer. Case in point: 9/11 and the various regimes that we are fighting because of their radical religious fanatics...which is usually instigated by their organizational hierarchy. Believe in what you will, but organized religion is much to political for my tastes.
