Simplify the concept even further. Lets eliminate free-thinking. Let us make thought uniform. That should pretty much eliminate conflict. Huxley's novel Brave New World would be a fairly good model on how to do it. Although, fortunately, technology has advanced a long way since that book was published. There are probably much more refined, perhaps brutal, ways which could more easily accomplish the goal.

Organized religion is the #1 cause of all terror,death and destruction on this planet.

Why is simply believing not enough?

Why do do we need a bunch of silly rules as interpreted by a bunch of fools in costumes reading from highly edited books telling us how we should live?

Screw religion as far as I'm concerned.I'm tired of watching people die over crap at the hands of fanatics who can't even prove what they believe in is real.
