Basically.  The thought that the absolute erasure of religion will solve all our world problems is so hare-brained, it's about as ridiculous as any beliefs religious extremists hold.  Bill Maher is basically like the antitheist equivalent of a radical Imam.  I mean, when I first discovered Reddit, he was a bit entertaining because he said a lot of true shit about how heavy religious influence affects the world negatively.  But he doesn't focus on the families that spend time together because of religion.  He doesn't focus on the people who were lifted out of the darkest times in their lives by religion.  Religion, just like all free speech, can be used to hurt and to heal.
