I know this is very 2edgy4me type shit, and I normally hate the people that say it; But, religion. Let's all just be equals, let's all just realize our time is short here, let's all just realize there is no afterlife, and let's all just embrace the fact that we are a cosmic accident and we should simply enjoy our time here and work together to explore our planet, solar system, and galaxy.
I know the neck beard atheists like to hate on my perspective but I see the problem stemming from people, not religion. People use religion to give themselves political power, they use religion as an excuse to start wars and gain riches, land and wenches. In literally every case in history it's the corrupt leaders or corrupt collective that will do something in the name of a "God" or a book or whatever. In today's society it's a means for people to be united but also a means for people to exercise their natural xenophobia. With religion gone humanity would just find another reason.
If we could remove the xenophobia and the corrupt use of religion then i think we would actually get somewhere.

Well said. Imagine if people appreciated everything in life for what it was rather than attributing it to magic.
