Religious nuts will rule. Not a good future.

A lot of us are all descendants of religious nuts. I'm not too worried.

Considering the amount of problems that religion causes at present, I am more skeptical.

Our religious nut ancestors didn't have nuclear weapons.

Yet they managed to raze cities just fine. If anything, modern religious nuts are quite tame compared to our ancestors.

Digression: There is some reason to believe that "religion" has no real epistemological grounding outside the Abrahamic world.
