What are your thoughts on this?

‎"I wish people would stop looking at religion as the problem and start looking at it as a symptom of other problems. If we think of religion as the fruition of people put in desperate situations, worried about their livelihood, feeling powerless rather than empowered, having their curiosities satisfied with mysticism instead of science, then we can do something more than complain about it, we can begin to fix the problem. If my fellow atheists and anti-theists poured half the energy they reserve for either flaming religion or pandering to cultural relativist notions in order to forgive religion into creating a better world, one without homelessness, poverty, slavery, war, disease, oppression, where things like food, water, shelter, health care, education, and energy were human rights then I promise you that if religion didn't die out it would be disarmed of much of the harm it could do. In other words, before you can rid the world of religion you have to give the religious what they've been asking for all along, salvation; Not from their own sins but from the sin of devaluing mankind to the point that they are worth only what they contribute or what they can scrounge up for themselves."
