It's as I said in an earlier post really, religion gives the trouble makers a very large captive audience. If these masses of people were not drawn together by religion, and in the case of some religions "brainwashed" it would be another story. Religion can be a very powerful form of brainwashing, there is no other powerful form that can persuade someone to take their own life and the life of others so easily.
Removing religion would make it harder for the extreme element to find gullible recruits.
