And how many wars thoughout history are rooted back to religion? Rather not religion, but more so ignorance. Science is driven by understanding,open-mindedness, and the will to change.
Yet, Christianity thrives on oppression of women, children, and basically anyone man judges to be of lesser status. Anyways, thanks for the discussion.

I'm afraid that you have a wrong view of Religion. It's true that you find the good, bad, and ugly in all groups of people. People will always fight wars and murder others. Even people who call themselves Christian do this. But the true Christian is the most peaceful person alive. And in regard to the oppression of women and children. This is not Christianity that does this.
