Okay, so. Religion.
Supposing the concept of religion was completely abolished (I don't think that could ever happen personally, but, nonetheless)- I think people would become more logical and objective, but I also think existential angst and dread would certainly perpetuate. Life could become perceived as meaningless and chaotic by many, society could regress and potentially become morally corrupt, or rather the lack of morals (due to no real premise enforcing them, such as religion) would result in such.. in other words, morals would likely not be as firmly established as they once were under the previous condition of religion existing.
What do you think?
And how do you believe would the *theoretical* abolishment of religion would affect society?
