Believe in what you want to believe in but organized religion is problematic and historically dangerous. It is THE reason for world conflict

People are the reason. That’s a contributing factor.

Religion in and of itself isn’t dangerous or a main cause of war. It’s when it’s abused by charismatic leaders to drag the practitioners into violence. The same thing can be done with anything from political movements to a DND group

I agree to an extent. It’s when an organized group uses religion to pursue their interests. Which is what is happening with Zionism and American Christian Nationalism. Both groups who don’t necessarily represent their religions but are using the religion to consolidate power
