    Cute, but that doesn’t work when “kill the infidels!” is literally their warcry. They openly call them Holy Wars and promote them as driven by religion. Sure, there’s money and power involved as well, but people are fighting over religion. That’s just fact.

      You’re defining your feelings as fact. Just like fundamentalist religious people that cry out “kill the infidels” do.

      It’s also a fact that atheists have killed even more people because of adherence to weird ideologies.

      Like I say, people who are 100% certain of things can come to strange conclusions. Real life isn’t so simple as seeing one person saying “kill the infidels” and concluding that all people in that religion think the same way.

      Joseph Stalin was an atheist, does being an atheist make you think the same way as Joseph Stalin?

        Oh. No no. You misunderstood the whole time. I never said or believed that ALL religious people are warmongers. That’s completely foolish.
