      This might be an unpopular opinion… but I would go for removing religion altogether. I’m not saying it doesn’t do any good, I’m saying the harm outweighs the good. And it would also remove a lot of the anti-vaxxers.

        That’s not bad, but how about instead of prohibiting them from existing, we make it so that any organized religion that operates solely as a business gets heavily taxed instead(and put that tax towards public education). If you prohibit all religion, then it just goes underground, or pays off fines, etc. Better to let them legally exist In a way that actually benefits society imho.

          I agree. In my comment, my hope is for some magic removal of religion to where it just doesn’t exist as a concept anymore.

          In reality, your way is the way to go.
