    Laws and the state exist to deal with the people that DO want to rape and murder.

    And religion doesn’t? What subject are we talking about again?

    Money exists to provide a more convenient way to exchange goods and services.

    Is it the most convenient way? Have there been other ways? (Yes, there has, for thousands of years.)

      Well, seeing the problems Catholic priests are having not touching little children, I’m going to go ahead and say no, religion is not a very good way to deal with people that do want to do such heinous acts.

      Can’t speak for anyone else but I’ve never seen god stop a rape/murder.

      We could go back to bartering I suppose but I’d rather carry a credit card around than a 60lb sack of grain or whatever people are trading for.
