I was pondering on the concept of God and I came up with this definition :
God is the spawn of the union between a human understanding of mortality and the human desire for immortality.

The origin matters not, only the destruction of the evil it produced.
but don't you agree that a better understanding of the origin is helpful in tackling the evil
A valid point, but defeating said evil still has priority. Most certainly a "Sooner, Not Later" concern. Then again, even without direct action, the end of religion is already a forgone conclusion. Even now, not soon enough will it be (please exscuse my Yoda moment.)
There is no god. There is no evil. There is only what exist good or bad. So to contemplate a god is a complete waste of time.
I agree. But seeking religions eradication is not.
That is an interesting idea. However there is no god and if there were to be, and this was the deity worshipped by so many, I wouldn't want to worship this deity. Religion formed when people wanted easy answers and didn't like the short time of thier own mortality.
Morality comes from society not a god or religion. It has always come from society and never ever came from religion.
