While I half suspect you're just trolling:
Religion itself isn't the entirety of any problem. If anything, I'd say people are. Like in Medieval Europe, while the church and the government were still intimately intertwined, Christianity was basically a tool used by corrupt feudal leaders to keep their subjects oppressed. Then they launched the Crusades. The reason behind them was to gain money and power, Christianity was merely used as a recruiting tool, and a means of maximizing the power gain. If there was no religion, the nobility would have found a different way to oppress the peasants, but if there was no nobility, then these actions would have been greatly reduced.
Today, many people use religion as an excuse to be intolerant douches. But people also use race, nationality, social class, money, and a number of other factors to do exactly the same thing.
Is Atheism a religion? Sort of. It has a social binding effect like other religions, and a set of beliefs regarding the supernatural, also like other religions. It does lack some of the formal aspects such as a hierarchy and religious text, but those aren't mandatory elements of a religion. But, regardless, some Atheists will use atheism as an excuse to be dicks to the religious, just like some Christians use Christianity to be dicks to non-Christians, some rich people use money as an excuse to be dicks to the poor, etc.
So, while the label of Atheism historically may not have as much blood on its hands as Christianity does, the modern social dynamics are more similar than some might realize. By eradicating religion, you're not really solving any problems, just burying one mask of the root causes.
And to the people who say education is the way to end religion, I say yes and no to that. Logic, taught by education, and faith, taught by religion, are fundamentally different ways of thinking. While education can iron out some of the bigotry and pseudo scientific teachings that are often pushed by religion, the inability to apply logic to a system that is fundamentally meant to be illogical will ultimately lead to the failure to prove or disprove anything in the strictly religious arena.
