Without religion would people become more, less, or be equally morally corrupt?

Moralty and Religion... The two are inseparable and strongly interwoven, hence, no room for disconnectivity if we want to live in a peaceful world. Only through religion, "a tool in the Hand of the Almighty" can we best understand and appreciate the value of being morally upright and coexisting in a morally endowed society. This brief comment can only be best understood when we start seeing Religion as a "general way of life" rather than the mere "code of conduct" as perceived by many school of thought.

Religion and morality are two separate things! They have no connection and nothing connects them.

Religion is like a code of conduct. It has what it considers right or wrong. It has tailored ways of worshipping. Every service/worship have patterns and these patterns are always followed to worship the Supreme being.

Perhaps you belong to one of those who say 'Christianity', for instance, is not a religion.
You should try tell us what makes something 'A' a religion and something 'B' a way of life.

I will like to hear from you. Thanks.
