Answer 11

Let me put it this way, the world would be a better place if Jesus was still alive, and there were no Christians. No Churches. No sermons. No bible. No people yelling "Repent! The end is near!".

Just the guy wearing sandals going around turning water to wine and healing the sick.

Answer 12

The world would not be without God the creator.  

Answer 13

It couldn't be any worse. Sinners claim to be reborn.. Funny how most are in prison for murder or rape when they decide to become religious.

I think most people need it as a crutch to make excuses for their behavior rather than just living life the right way.

Without it, those people would have NO reason to do right.
