Does secularism make people more ethical?

Herr berbunch and i share the same views then

Religion *can* teach some ethics and morals, but then turns around and spews bull****. People may "believe" in god, but more and more are realizing what a load of bull religion has become, and dont follow what they teach, such as the seven deadly sins.

I have no problem with the belief in god. Even if it is just false hope, it helps people find hope from themselves indirectly in times of need.

I have a problem with religion. they say "love everyone" and blah blah, and they turn around and say "Down with Homos! down with Atheists! they deserve to burn in hell!". Hypocrites much? I also love how they have a convenient answer for everything.

Along with their "no Homo" crap, comes the uncovering of the priests not only having sex with males, but underaged alter boys no less. Its so infuriating.

Religion IS one of the worst things thats happened to mankind. hundreds of millions slaughtered in the name of religion, oppression and hate in the name of religion. Where does it end?
