Introduction

Religion is a Negative Influence on the World, the scope of this argument will be limited to two points for the topic (Religion is a Negative Influence on the World) and one topic against. Firstly, the impedance of scientific progress will be discussed (this will be entirely about stem cell research, including alternate uses of the research), secondly the impedance of medical treatment (this includes topics such as faith healing and religious preference) and finally the positive psychological effects (this will cover topics like values, morales and raising children).
