- WJW 3y agoThere's also plenty of religious people who have never murdered anyone in their lives, and there have been plenty of dogmatic massacres for reasons entirely unrelated to religion. The two issues seem to be quite uncorrelated tbh.
- paulryanrogers 3y agoReligion requires belief without evidence. (Or flimsy evidence like ancient testimony.) It's uniquely positioned as a tool to manipulate people to do things they wouldn't otherwise do.
- pleoxy 3y agoYou completely missed the nuance I tried to convey. Making a giant bucket of lots of things and declaring it bad because there is something bad in there shows your ignorance. Ignoring reasoning shows an unwillingness to learn about stuff.
