How so?
Actually, we really wouldn't have a lot of things. Religion inspired many people, friend. Things may be better, may be worse. But a lot of things were made by those with religion, and had they not been, they may have never thought of it. Their situation would have been different. Once again, maybe better, maybe worse. Even some sciences were founded by people of certain religions. (Maybe not for the religion, but it is still a part of there life that made the situation)
tl;dr: Everyone makes up what the world is today, and if something was different in one person's life, the whole world may be effected. The Butterfly Effect, I believe. :o
Cereal was created in the 50s to dumb down children in preparation of the one world government.
That's what the man wants you to think. >:O
