I find this point of view logically wrong, dangerous, and nearly as close minded as any religion you can name. Until there is testable/irrefutable proof that there is no god. By god I mean "the one Supreme Being, the creator and ruler of the universe". Then you can only believe that there is no god. This Quote is as rude and stupid as some one saying the exact antithesis of it.

As for whether or not religion it self is bad that could possibly be measured and discussed properly and logically. Depending by how you measure it religion as a whole could be a very good thing or a very bad thing. In the same way an inch can be very big or very small. You must pick a point of reference before claiming anything is something
