All the Jews that died in the Holocaust we're discriminated cause of their religion.

Science, as defined as 'the search for truth' is not a religion; science as defined as 'the search for naturalistic causes' is a religion as it assumes that there can only be a 'natural cause' for everything.

Naturalism, the idea or belief (assuption) that everything has a natural origin (cause), is the secound oldest religion.

Religion is usually composed of the belief in god or gods and the worship of said god or gods. A religion usually has a holy book that is supposed be to read to get moral instructions and guidance but the believers are usually to lazy to read it.

Basically, bullshit. Especially when people try to teach creationism in schools or prevent people from getting married because of it.
There are two extreme sides of the spectrum. There's the atheist who despises religious people and argues about pretty much anything that has to do with religion. These people usually think of themselves as superior in intellect than the religious sheep. And then there's the religious person (usually a christian) who hates people of other religions/no religion and tries to outlaw all their fun.

Many types of ridiculous superstitions that are really mean't to keep you in line so the more powerful and rich leaders don't have to.
If you do bad things in life and don't believe in the higher power of your religion, you burn for eternity when you die, or you are excommunicated by your former friends and family, or you worship Satan, or like in the old days, you are killed or tortured.

The reason the world is shitty, and the reason the world will end horribly.
Maybe if we all didn't try to blindly follow a religion, there wouldn't be so many wars and people dying for no reason.
