Odd how God's will always turns out to be human greed or human lust for power in the end. I think the original thesis stands.

- ethanbond 4y agoYeah don’t worry, I don’t think this is the actual desire of any actual god. But that doesn’t mean religion is irrelevant to how you get so many people with very little to gain to sacrifice their lives and/or humanity for someone else’s greed/lust for power.
- alexvoda 4y agoIt is much mure than that. Greed and lust for power are only motivators as long as it is profitable. Ideology goes way beyond and can motivate extreme hatred. Because ideology can turn a non-issue or a minor issue into an existential threat in the mind of the believers.
