I'm not against the idea. Of course it is a great idea, but I just can't see it actually working, and unfortunately, reality isn't the same as we'd want it to be sometimes. What irks me is there has been so much harm over such an unnecessary thing, and there continues to be. People aren't going to address the root of the problem, so its not going to change any time soon. The idealists will try and good on them, I support that, though I'd sooner see and end to all religions. That's not going to happen, so I take the good with the bad much like anything else.

You claim "there has been so much harm over such an unnecessary thing, and there continues to be." What harm?

You claim "I'd sooner see and end to all religions." Does that include Buddhism?
