No. We were talking about in the absence of religion. If after everyone has stopped making decisions based on religion, we were only left with compassion, respect, empathy, etc., we'd be in a better place.

but you should entertain that the Christians ideas just might not be false, and therefore should not be eliminated by the freedom from religion people.
It very well could be true, but based on how many gods humanity have worshipped in our past, and even present, the likelihood that the Christian god is the one true god is fairly small.

And for those who disagree? Here is my point. You are automatically assuming that Christianity is wrong. fair enough. But consider just for a minute that Christianity just might be right. tehn being free from religion would have catastrophic consequences, and people would certainly not be better off. So, in shorty you would be forcing people to believe like you do. I though that was what people criticized Christians for.
