Getting rid of religion would be a major leap forward for humanity.

As much as I want religion to be gone, you can't force people to change their beliefs overnight. We frown upon forced conversion by one religion on another; why can't atheist apply the same standard to theists? That was the mistake of communist Afghans and it only led to a severe backlash of inducing the mostly conservative Afghans to become ultra-consenservative Islamists. Every reaction has an opposite but equal reaction. Social changes has to be organic.

ah yes, Islamists, the group of people well known to be religiously open and totally not forcing their shit on everyone else.

It is well known communists cracked down on religion because they are staunchly atheists.
