    Icon1 Which religion should rule the world?

    Imagine aliens contact Earth and they tell you that according to their religious policy, they have to pick one religion that should rule humankind, and all the rest should be eliminated in order to prevent further religious conflicts and wars.

    Which one would you pick? Please explain your decision.

    PS no flaming or trolling please.

    No single religion or ideology. I know that is a breach of the terms you have set, but it is how I feel. If ANY ideology or paradigm was to eventually gain global domination, I would fight against it, even if it was my paradigm.

    If everyone in the world believed the same thing it would spell the end of the resilience and importance of the human spirit. Not to mention the world would be rally really really boring.

    So you would agree to eliminate all other religions, including the believers just for the lulz. In the name of a religion, that worships a third world dictator, and a religion, that rejects the modern, Western world.

    If you're an Atheist, you basically say God has no impact on how things are run on Earth, therefore you support the current, selfless, soulless machine of global capitalism and global exploitation.

    If you are a Christian, you basically say God made you most important beings on earth, therefore you support the current, selfless, soulless exploitation of nature.


    Your argument is frustratingly fallible. Just because I do not believe I'm going to be punished for what I do doesn't mean that anything goes.
