Until there is verifiable proof of the existence of god religion should have no place in society. It should not be taught in schools and should not form the basis of any laws. In fact even if you do show up with proof that god exists I still hold the right to ignore god and religion. I claim the right to live without god.

True. I’m just reading between the lines here, because of the phrase “until there is verifiable proof”. If it applies to god, then it applies to privacy of conscious experience, in which case… well, we have done pretty horrific things in the past because there was no verifiable proof of someone’s conscious experience, like performing surgery on infants without anesthesia.
