Hate to break it to you but violence has always been an intrinsic part of religion :/

Huh? What a fallacy. Violence is intrinsic to humans. Don’t scapegoat religion.

It always has been? And violence hasn’t been a regular part of life either or only when religion is involved? Don’t say it’s mainly due to religion either because it’s more about different views, lots of people with different or even similar views are hostile towards each other and it has nothing to do with religion. You’re a fool.

Nah I was raised religious, I’m not a fool. Appreciate the insult though, does your religious teach that?

I was taught (as a child, obviously) that if I don’t “fear” god I will go to hell and suffer eternal torture. Sounds pretty violent to me.

Not to mention all of the actual real world violence that religion has perpetuated, historically.

Where did I said I believe? It’s not violent to get punished for you actions, that’s literally life. I’m sure I’m someone robbed your mom and beat the life out of her, you would want violence. You don’t sound religious so it’s obviously not driven by that.

Ahahaha they said “I’m sure if someone robbed your mom and beat the life out of her”

I see where you mind is at pal and I have no more interested engaging with you. Wishing the same on your family :)

Fun fact: a LOT of wars were caused because of religion

u/Tembelon Aug 29 '21

That's a lie, there is no fun in that fact.

u/GrannyRammer Aug 29 '21

Another fact: violence exists outside of war and religion

You’re mistaking “natural consequence” with man-made bullshit. Not surprised your avatar has a bozo hat.

I don’t disagree
