And at what point in that quote did I mention World War I or the Cold War? I didn't. Not to mention the fact that the figure I gave was sarcasm. I would think the way I said it might give that away, but here we are.

I'll make it simple for you: essentially every major conflict man has ever experienced has been the result of one group deciding that their sky genie is better than another group's, so that means it's alright to kill them. Even the ones that preach love and acceptance put a giant fucking asterisk on it. Buddhism is the only real exception, and that's because it's not even a religion in the same way the others are.

Christians? Ongoing conflicts in the middle east, with the dumbest and most evil amongst them calling it a "holy war".

Catholics? A history of pedophilia, rape and murder stretching from the crusades all the way up until now.

Muslims? Same shit different name.

And yes, it's obviously not all INSERT RELIGIOUS GROUP HERE, but that doesn't change the fact that hatred and othering of those who don't agree is a core tenet of all major religions.

Was slavery for religion? Was the genocide of native people's for religion? Was the slaughter of people of the Amazon for religion? Are people, today, working themselves to death for religion? Is pollution and global warming for religion?

So yeah. People kill each other for dumb things. Religion. Money. Love. Lust. Name a thing and people have probably killed for it.

Im pretty sure feudalism is worse

What an insane question to ask someone

Really?

Show me one (1) meme on here that addresses it. Just one.

Or..... you could just use the search tool, and look up "13th amendment"

we trace if back to his followers actions.

No, no, no, Clyde - the hysterical and ludicrously ahistorical screeds being regurgitated on here by you lot literally absolves them. Your (thoroughly contrived) problem is with religion itself, remember?

That is what you are blaming for all this, remember?

Go look at the first responses to my reply if you don't believe me, okay?

Honestly, I mostly see capitalism as a religion. It provides a narrative about the meaning of life. It provides rules that it's followers should adhere to. It provides goals, restrictions, and social orders. It defines it's own ethics, worldviews, texts, doctrines, and priorities.

Im pretty sure feudalism is worse

Worse for whom?

Fair enough, I guess.

Himmler was a paganist and occultist. You should read up on things before you talk about them.

I did. I saw no memes about it posted by edgelord atheists.

No, you didn't. If you are going to openly lie, at least try a little.

Not sure I am reading the new Testament right but Jesus, quite frequently, did not sound terribly observent to the ruling class to me.

Replying to a comment about how religious people should be sent to another planet

If someone, on a post about an immigrant murdering another person, with the title and body text saying that immigrants should be sent to another planet, complains about the group of people that have said similar things, would you agree with the reply "Wow, super weird that the post about how murder is wrong set you off this hard..."?

Himmler was a paganist and occultist.

So just... edgy hippy shit, eh?

Do tell... do you edgelords regularly launch screeds against those, too?

No, you didn’t.

Then you should have no problem proving that, should you?

So that's a no, self-styled "prole?"

And at what point in that quote did I mention World War I or the Cold War?

So you actually are trying to claim WW1 or the Cold War was driven by religion?

Not to mention the fact that the figure I gave was sarcasm.

Howzabout a real one, then? Count the wars that you think wasn't caused by religion - shouldn't be too difficult. After all, the list cannot possibly be long (according to you), can it?

ssentially every major conflict man has ever experienced has been the result of one group deciding that their sky genie

Quick, call the historians! This genius right here has figured it all out! War is never about all-pervading imperialist exploitation, complicated class dynamics or geopolitical competition... NO! It's all about a "sky genie!"

Who coulda thunk it, eh?

Where the fuck did you get your history from, genius! Playing Age Of Empires, maybe?

Christians? Ongoing conflicts in the middle east,

I hate to break it to you, Clyde... but the white supremacist empires haven't required religion to justify white supremacist slaughter since the (so-called) "Enlightenment." Care to explain that, perhaps?

who don’t agree is a core tenet of all major religions.

Really?

“This letter contains the oath given unto them [the monks of St. Catherine’s Monastery], and he who disobeys that which is therein will be considered a disbeliever and a transgressor to that whereunto he is commanded. He will be regarded as one who has corrupted the oath of God, disbelieved His Testament, rejected His Authority, despised His Religion, and made himself deserving of His Curse, whether he is a Sultan or any other believer of Islam. Whenever Christian monks, devotees and pilgrims gather together, whether in a mountain or valley, or den, or frequented place, or plain, or church, or in houses of worship, verily we are [at the] back of them and shall protect them, and their properties and their morals, by Myself, by My Friends and by My Assistants, for they are of My Subjects and under My Protection."

You were saying, edgelord?

Your mistake was actually reading the bible.

You're not supposed to read it, you're supposed to let other people cherry-pick passages for you, which you can then selectively observe while conveniently ignoring all the incongruent parts.

Ya silly.

And the ages before and after weren't?

Scared, edgelord?

It's just history, after all... nothing to be afraid of, is there?

Its technically right, there are no memes about it when you search it. Feels weird to exclude other posts about it(maybe they have the communities blocked or the client doesnt have a functional search for some reason?)

For most of the population of a country using that system

Youtube videos are memes. Posts are memes. I'm not sure it's technically right.

No, I didn't. If you search for those, you'll find them.

If you want to define religion as "edgy hippy shit", then I guess. And yes, people regularly launch screeds against paganist religions and occultist religions all the time.

But your sad attempts at insults and trolling could be good, if you at least put a little effort into them. Try making coherent sentences, as a starter.

Oh, I don't know about that... I'd say that feudalist peasants would be rather terrified of our thoroughly unstable liberal boom-and-bust cycles.

And you conveniently forget that feudal peoples (and non-feudal peoples) all over the world had to be violently brutalised into accepting liberal economic realities... so there's that.

And yes, people regularly launch screeds against paganist religions and occultist religions

Strange... I don't see edgelord atheists doing that at all. Mind showing me some examples?

Try making coherent sentences

Nooo... mine looks perfectly coherent. Can't say the same for you, though.

Already did. Found none.

Good. Edgelord atheists' grip on reality seems quite tenuos enough already without them claiming that.

No you didn't. I can confirm this, because I, and one other person have also searched, and we found a bunch.

Once again, put some effort into your trolling. Like, make up fake results, or try to dismiss facts. You aren't even giving it a good effort.

This is so sad. I used to think that people using bots to troll others was the lowest of the low on the internet, but you've taught me that there's someone who can put even more of their time, but somehow less effort into it.

"no, u" at least has some historical context if you do it right, which adds humor, but you can't even pull that off properly.

Speaking of poeple who "can’t even pull that off properly" - will you be taking long with those examples?

and we found a bunch.

Show them to me.

I just did. I don't know how this can be so hard for you. You should have gone with a "those aren't actually memes tho", or "that actually proves what I was saying is correct". There's so many better ways to troll people, but you just can't bring yourself to the basics.

They're right there. I don't get how it can be so hard for people to read what is on the page.

Have you ever considered fucking off?

It'd be great if you would fuck off

What nonsense take is this?

I am not religious. However it was Christians under the believe of their god that went on a quest to outlaw and ban slavery world wide, fighting wars and spending a significant budget doing so.

Americans and their american view of the world, the rest of us didnt exist pre 1776.

hahahahahahahahahaha

Nope.

The fuck does this have to do with anything in this post?

You should read into the British Empire's war on slavery, godspeed amigo.

No edgelord. I think I'll stay and point out your irrationality a bit longer.

Youtube videos are memes.

No, they are not.

Posts are memes.

No, they are not.

Try harder.

Show them to me.

They’re right there.

How long will this take you?

A week?

was one of the main promoters of the Gottgläubig faith

That was literally a religious category for people who left organized religion but still believe in (the Christian) God. Actual atheist organizations where attacked by the SA.

Actual atheist organizations where attacked by the SA.

Do tell... what symbol were atheists forced to wear in the death camps again?

According to what churchgoers are told, at least.

1 Paganism was the followed religion during slavery, those in power practiced it.

2 Catholicism is what drove the expansion into the new world.

3 Catholicism and lust for gold drove the conquistadors into the Amazon.

4 You have a point but we are not religious anymore and one might argue that capitalism is a form of religion.

5 Environmental deaths, really? Reaching much?

Nice attempt at a pivot, but I'm not triggered I'm disappointed by your lack of intellect and your small minded outlook of humanity(you would know this if your reading comprehension skills were were equal to or above a third grade level).
