What about the pork markets?

And about 200 other species, but only one has exhibited homophobia.

Pretty sure they get up to all sorts of rape and paedophilia and incest too. This might be a nice fact, but penguins are dirty bitches and certainly no behavioural gold standard.

What does that mean?

What ties Nicholas Cage to the situation? How is he relevant to the scenario?

I'd prefer something that reflected the current deadly threat to the nature and environment.

Reminds me of that worm that sneezes out its soft palette, and it branches out like veins across the floor

Gotta be tough for carpentry and stonemasonry.

A lot of what you say can be applied to other, non-religious cultures, not least that of the west, albeit in different measure. Any society will develop an overarching system of rules and standards; it's necessary to avoid anarchy, which is more inimical to the broader progress of mankind. People naturally band together, it's an evolutionary trait, so regardless of what intangible strictures those tribes are subject to, there will always be friction between and indeed amongst them. Voltaire said "If God did not exist it would be necessary to create him." and he was dead right, he just didn't mean 'God' in the strictly theistic sense.

Ultimately, people are people, meaning they need reeling in or things go to shit. Perhaps there exists an ideal set of circumstances under which civilised man can live peacefully without noticeably impinging on his moral objectivity, but let's not hold our breath. As long as there are groups, there will be some cunts who tighten the shackles for everyone, whether it be by breaking the rules, or making the rules.

So yes, all religions are bad, but in the spirit of catching all, I'd go broader.

C'mon man Sikhs are fucking chilled out

Nobody's friend says that.
