   I assume by "his" you mean Jesus' teachings. If so, I don't think it would be a net positive. Not only did Jesus hold some beliefs that weren't good (the concept of original sin is one example), but in addition there would still be the whole "belief without evidence" thing that, in my opinion, is the main problem with Christianity.

     @Radical_EgoCom @punissuer @NilaJones — one important distinction needs to be made.
     I’m of the Ancient Greek Atheist thought that action is the only important part.
     The issue I have with a lot of religious thought is how “what is in your heart” trumps “what you do”. Ancient Greek philosophy doesn’t care, “You are what you do.”
     People don’t care why you do something, they only cared that you helped or harmed them.
