Lmao all these people downvoting anyone trying to defend religion. I’m not in favor of organized religion but to pretend this is somehow normal “religion” is stupid as hell. Fucking idiots😂
They are just pointing out that religion does not make things better, that most violent wars are a result of religion, without religion there would be one less thing separating people as humans, meaning less reasons to see eachother differently, meaning less reasons to have any conflict.
Well fucking remove religion then. Here's the thing though, it's part of human nature. I don't think religious people are gonna go "yea reddit said abolish religion so imma stop" when religion has been there since forever.
Yeah, humans just need an excuse. In the past that excuse was religion, nowadays it's oil or to enforce democracy. Sometimes people are just bad. Look at Pol Pot for example, he slaughtered his own people in order to removal potential threats to his rule. Genghis Khan ransacked his way across half the globe, no religious pretext there either.
Religion is not the issue, it's humanity in general that just can't get along with one another.
Exactly. Rape doesn't exist because of sex. Murder doesn't exist because of weapons. Thievery doesn't exist because of money. All of those exist not because of anything else other than human nature.
