You have it backwards.religions civilized human raceI've seen the "Atheism is a religion, too" arguments made as a way to silence the "Religion ruins everything" arguments.
Religions used to ask for blood sacrifice, virgins thrown into volcanoes, animals cut open for prophecy... That gets less bloody over time and civilization.
Civilization's growth tamed religion.
