35 Inventions That Were Meant to Help Society But Turned Out to Be Absolutely Terrible

All right, I am going to have to respectfully disagree with this next one. You don’t have to like organized religion, but there are many people who find immense value in it. And it has a lot of important benefits: for instance, did you know that people who are religious are more likely to be charitable than those who are not?

Other studies have shown that people who attend church live longer than those who don’t, that children with religious parents have better self-control and social skills than other kids, and that participating in organized religion has a measurable positive effect on happiness and mental health.
