But the Hitlers, Osamas and Mansons of the world happened regardless - religion didn't stop them. How many killers and tyrants have made history doing what they did in the name of religion?

No, its not hard for me to imagine no religion at all. I'm doing fine without it.

You are dead on in this statement, and while I do not know you, judging from your name and tagline, I'm guessing you're dealing with some "religion" issues, perhaps as a result of being too involved in one at a previous time in your life. I've traveled down that road myself. It took me some time not to hold all religion and exercize thereof in contempt simply because my narrow experience with it was negative. But I've since come to understand that nothing on this earth is all good or all bad (except, maybe, for the Clintons).

Of course, that means that you don't believe anything is absolutely right or wrong (good thing the subjective moral hang-up about murder is so wide-spread at present; makes G-d unnecessary for you, I suppose).

Or maybe you're depending on that "social contract" none of us can remember signing.
