Though I'm pretty sure this isn't here for critique, you used quite a lot of first person in an essay, which isn't allowed unless it's agreed upon by the community that you are an expert on the subject, which I assume you're not.

We were allowed to use first person for our research papers in this class.

It's not here for critique. It's here to be debated. I know I'm not that good at papers since I despise doing them.

I think religion is a negative in the world, and something that should be discarded. I'm not saying belief in a superpower that made stuff should be discarded, or that we shouldn't think Jesus pwns, but I'm saying organized religion is bad for mankind.

I don't think that it's religion itself that's the problem. Humans just have a natural arrogance about them where they refuse to think anyone else can be right. If wars or anything of the sort didn't happen because of religion, it would have occurred from anything ranging from belief in one political system to whether Burger King makes a better burger than McDonald's or not. It just so happens that religion is one of the more near and dear things to us, and we're willing to fight for our beliefs and do anything to "prove" we're right.

I walk the Earth another day
The wicked one that comes this way
Savior to my own, devil to some
Mankind falls, something wicked comes

Forged in the sacred flames
On the sixth day
Of the sixth month
In the sixth hour
