RMF, > There would be NO Western Hemisphere if people had adhered to religious beliefs.

LOL, people coming to the New World were looking for religious freedom.

> There would be NO modern science and none of us could have been expected to live past 40 if everyone had adhered to religious beliefs.

Even Albert Einstein believed in a God.

Like Lenin, Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Che?

The western hemisphere would be here regardless of western religious beliefs. It would even have been discovered and colonized.

Modern science was begun by Christians. Take Isaac Newton, one of the intelligent scientists in human history. He was also a fundamentalist Christian and devoted years of study to biblical prophecy, predicting from his studies that Christ would not come back before 2060 and that the Jews would return to Palestine.
