Imagine you could go back in time in some newly-invented time machine, and change the world's history, and prevent anything religious from happening. Ignoring the infalliability of God not allowing this argument, would you presume this changed world to be better or worse, or the same? :confused2:

From a Christian perspective, you might as well have said, "If the world have never come into existence, would it (the world) be better or worse or the same?"
Without religion would be without God.
Without God the world wouldn't exist.
"Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood;
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!"
- Philip P. Bliss, 1838-1876
