Jews and Muslims have the protective wrapper of religion which atheists lack. All societies have a religion or they become extinct. When the Romans stopped believing in the gods, they converted to Christianity. The Vikings were pagans who settled in France and became Christian. Where are they now? They have assimilated themselves out of existence. Monotheism is the most eloquent demonstration of less is more. Jews who were monotheists before Muslims are still with us today and the theocracy of Iran still defies America, which Britain cannot, being its poodle. If Iran had not had their Islamic Revolution, they would be practising liberal democracy and still a Western vassal state.
THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
