Religion is more used as a pretext, or an excuse, than a real reason of war.
Maybe that would (barely) explain on the medieval times, but for today? Well, mostly he was just flamming not so differently from many teens around the internet.
For today? Still the same, money and power...
But religion? The reason for all wars? Don´t make me laught. Don´t be as hardminded as the "theists which you accuse".
Some already used religion was a tool to archive the "money and power", but man, seriously? Causing ALL the wars?
Give me a brake...
Read it again, I wrote it is used as a pretext, not as the reason. I hope that after your brake, you will be able to read correctly.
he might be just trolling you.
I don't think so... If you are blinded with rage, innocent comment looks like Mein Kampf
oh well... ehm... ok, I admit. Sorry. There was a small misunderstood you and even overexagerated. No trolling, no fanatism (a pure no, I´m agnostic...), just a misunderstood.
Kinda... I my mind it was something like... well... it´s hard to explain. And I even admit that those were not good days xD
So... rethinking on that... It´s a good point you made. Yet, it´s good that it´s no longer so overused today like centuries of years ago (like the medieval age).
In peace again? :) (C´mon, I´m even using a smile on the comment)
wars are fought over power and fueled by ignorance. I see a whole lot of connection between religion and ignorance
Religion has often been the cause, or at least the enabler, of war.
