Freedom of religion=Freedom FROM religion??

[AChimp]

Religion has a few good ideas and reminds us all to play nice, not poke people with sticks, etc. However, since these values have already become ingrained in society and can be taught in a non-religious way, there's little need for religion anymore, IMO. I certainly don't find any problems getting along in life as an atheist.

In fact, most of the time I don't even consider any kind of belief when I'm going about my business.

Having said that, I don't think that religion will ever disappear entirely, but its influence will become less and less over time, as has been evidenced by events of the last century. I know I've used this example before, but it illustrates what I'm trying to say. In one episode of Star Trek: Voyager, Janeway tells some aliens that "we [humans] have grown beyond the need for those kind of beliefs." Of course, in the Star Trek universe, there are still religions, even among humans, so it still exists, but is inconsequential for the vast majority of people.
