Mr. Shiva, it is not only strong thinking that religion is the root problems of all evils, it actually is! Nearly two-thirds of all wars fought by mankind were in the name of religions and non-existent gods.
It is also a fallacy to believe that those who are devout followers of one religion or the other are not prone to commit crimes. A study conducted in the Jails of Sri Lanka some time back revealed that less than one third of one percent (1/3%) convicts were atheists and the rest for adherent followers of various religion (including the much touted peaceful religions like Christianity and Buddhism). So we can very well understand the futility of the so-called morals of religions!!!
