But could you name ONE thing that you think is most destructive about Organized Religion? I'm hoping to read some thoughtful, not-so-obvious responses.

An obvious one :D for me is how often the churches (try to) influence and maintain laws, particularly concerning abortion/birth control and marriage, based little even on scripture but on doctrine (which are two different things, IMO).

p.s. Remember not to bash.
p.p.s. Mods: I like tangents. (And, is this allowed to be here?)

I figure it's allowed, but double-posting is generally frowned on. Maybe this thread should turn into a link to this one?

Shweta, I think that's a good idea, given that this is already a thread here at AW. Those who want can link in and add to the same thread. Thanks for the link!

Hope you're okay with that, AM?

I'll lock this until I've had a chance to confirm this with Roger.

Roger's Response: I concur. In fact, I think the other thread is should be closed as well, and I am requesting the mods to do just that. I would never allow a "What is the Most Destructive Thing About Atheism?" thread here out of respect for our atheist members.
