I would ban religions or wars, altough denying other would take other in same.
Being treated right is still very subjective. Some children get better educations if they are home-schooled, if treated right means, they "have to go to school" then I guess the parents deserve to die because their children were better educated at home then at school.
Some people would say treated right would mean, getting an allowance every week for chores they do around the house, other parents would disagree.
I am not debating that parents should or should not treat their kids right, they should, but through a law, it is very hard to get everything put down in it. The worst thing people can do, is not be for each other and their kids.
Parents do their best, and a kid wants this magazine but can't pay for it, so they steal, and the child is a "thief" I guess the parents should be put to death right?
The problem with parents not caring about their kids comes from them being selfish human beings, who need to be selfless to their spouse and their children.
"If you're being a good parent, then what is there to be afraid of?"
If your child does a crime, even being a good parent, then its the parents fault, that they would be killed. So it doesn't matter what they do. Lets say a child steals a dvd, so his parents get killed, then because the parents were "horrible" I suppose the grandparents should be killed for not being good parents to their children, that were bad parents to their kid. Then the kid who had stolen the dvd, his siblings have no parents anymore anyway.

Oh, is that why UK, for example, doesn't want the EU to be more united? Because of religion? Who knew, I thought it was because of economy, poverty, greed, selfishness etc.
But you're right, most wars were carried because of religions, right. I mean when Hitler and Stalin... wait, no, that was racism and despotism. Ok, maybe in WW1 when Austro-Hungary attacked... wait, no, that was because of a wish for land and greed. Ok, ok, the crusades, the knights templar attacked in the name of religion... if you exclude the piles of gold and the power they got of course.
In truth, very few wars were in the name of religion. Religion was used as a motive, but the true motives were greed, need for power and wealth. So even if you removed religion... well North Korea doesn't seem really nice and willing to enlighten and become united with the rest of the world... unless the rest of the world is under them. Neither did USSR.
Yes, religion has some bad parts, but to say that religion is the factor that stops unification of the human race is ignorant.

And I never talk about religion until someone tries to force their atheist thinking on everyone.
That's easy... Everyone have to obey what I say.... now i can create as many laws as i want :P
No corruption.
that right there would solve all the world's problems.
"Show appropriate respect to other human beings".
It's a tad of a cheap shot, since that would pretty much cover all the positives of most other suggestions. Overly aggressive persuation of personal ideologies (religion or lack thereof, politics etc) would stop. Offensive humor would become a non-issue, since those of us with a particular brand of humor would respect that not everyone feels the same and not push it in their faces (and vice versa, etc). People would still be able to discuss and debate, but heated arguments would stop until everyone cooled down instead of turning into a dogfight. And so on, and so forth.
Basically, everything would be pretty much fine. So... yeah. Kind of a cheap shot to pull when talking hypothetics like this. :P

Bunching together different disconnected behaviours under an ideological label is always dumb, whether it be calling all christians pedophiles, all atheists anti-theistic loudmouths, or just about anything else.
Many of us don't represent /r/atheism. Many of us have our worldview and accept that not everyone shares it as long as they accept ours, much like you do. But going out of your way to insult entire groups just because of a few loudmouths is not going to help either one of us get what we wish for. That's an individual responsibility, not something that has to do with whether and/or in what you believe. Waiting for someone else to throw the first stone so you can claim "they started" when you act the same way, like Orbitus and Snowraven seem to take pride in doing, is not a good solution either.
Respect takes everyone a long, long way.

Probably pay your goddamn fair share of taxes (I.e. a progressive structure). Oh look, revenue crisis solved.

When an ateist say something like what you say he sounds a little... weird and intolerant, but when a catholic (religion person) say that sounds ironic :P

I don't think that will really work..., you know... there are many people that hate themself..., i would go with "Don't do to others what you don't want to be done to you"
Be kind to your fellow man... think of others before yourself... don't be a douche... failure to comply should be punishable with swift execution.
No flip flops or sandals, unless you are at the beach or pool, so gross.
Ez-mode answer. Kant's categorical imperative: Only do to others what you would have them do to you. End of thread, end of woes.
