FK – Religion doesn’t always cause war. Usually it’s just another good excuse for it.

What the book(s) actually say(s) matters little. What the sheeple can be convinced it means is everything.

The Crusaders knew their god allowed proper violence in its proper place. Modern brain dead pacified ‘christians’ have been convinced they’re supposed to sit on their asses and wait for the world to end, allowing the evil ones free reign to do as they please with future generations.

It’s all about fear. I was raised rural southern Baptist. Most of them as far as I could tell feared death. Most believers will say something like “I’m looking forward to paradise but I’m in no hurry to go there.”

They certainly feared the eternal punishment they were told their sadistic bronze age god threatened them with. I feel safe in claiming that’s the main reason most follow their savior, in order to get saved from what it will do to them if they don’t. And they have no problem with the concept that the rest of their ‘loved ones’ and friends could end up in the lake of fire. How pathetic.

Reading my copy of the Koran, which every other paragraph or so reminds the reader of the threat of hell, tells me how dangerous it is and how pathetic are those who are raised reciting it and little else.

It’s all about control. Where does all this really come from?

“Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace²but there is no peace. The war is actually begun!”

The rumors of war we shall always have with us.

Ignorance/simple answers to complex issues is/are always easier. That’s what’s kept the churches in business all these years. It eliminates the ‘believers’ desire, if they had any at all, to take on personal responsibility for the world they exist in.

Religion like democracy is another control device. Be a good slave and you’ll have paradise in the next life. Millions of morons wasting their time here waiting for the world to end while believing ‘it’s all foretold and we can’t do anything about it’ is a major part of the problem and one of the elites’ best tools for control. It was probably designed that way.
