>>> if you believe the bible so as far as body count ‘god’ wins. If you count the bodies in the bible it’s around 2 million. The nazis and imperialist Japanese and Marxists are responsible for hundreds of millions of dead and suffering. >>> Interestingly enough satan is only attributed to two deaths directly Do you prefer satan over God? Are you ignorant about satan's goals concerning mankind? Might want to educate yourself on the issue before it's too late and you find out that "oops, turns out I made a REEEEALLY bad mistake." Seriously, if all your mistakes and false beliefs exhibited here are any indication, don't you think you ought to reconsider your point of view, before it's too late? >>> But to point out atrocity in the name of god (we could just use the bible but we’ll use fact instead ; ) You believe that the Bible is fiction. How have you proven that theory and arrived at your conclusion? >>> I could make a list as long as you’d like No you cannot, in fact you cannot list anything anywhere near as long as the list of non-religiously motivated/justified attrocities. The single greatest motivating factor for war and genocide and mass murder in the world has been greed and power. At the lead is Marxist Communism, the anti-religious social doctrine of oppression. >>> but I’ll just include a few links to keep the post shorter. http://www.skeptically.org/enlightenment/id7.html You'll get no argument from me concerning the murderous islamists. I view islamism as a cult. It is grossly oppressively intolerant, incredibly oppressive of women, prescribes death to apostates, and promises all manner of sexual and material booty in heaven if you die in jihad killing infidels, even via suicide. Sick. Draw a picture of Mohomod and find yourself on an assassination target list. Cult. Many muslims have no idea what their guiding book, the koran, actually mandates. They have been conned into thinking that islam is a religion of peace. History up to current day irrefutably proves otherwise. >>> http://listverse.com/2008/04/02/8-atrocities-commi tted-in-the-name-of-religion/ That is your example? Weak. Very pathetically weak. Only two apply to Christian religious issues. One actually lists the persecution of Christians. >>> http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/s alem/SAL_ACCT.HTM Witch trials? Okay. Is that it? Your total is sorely paling compared to all the other wars and genocides of history, hundreds of millions in the past 100 years alone. But hey, you've denied truth and convinced yourself that religion is to blame for the world's ills. That is some serious faith you have there, being able to stand up and declare in effect that "one is greater than one million." Can we now agree that religion is NOT the cause of most war and suffering, far from it? |
