Damn religions have caused more death and destruction over the centuries. Why can’t people just practice their faiths in the seclusion of their own homes and not have the need to force it on others.
We’re no better than cavemen when it comes to this crap.

It’s not the religion for the most part. It’s those people that interpret the scripture to their own view of the world and who should run it.
I have no time for those that tell me I’m worshipping incorrectly and naming our kids incorrectly. Fck them.

The non-religious communists of the last century killed millions as well.
My conclusion from reading enough history books is humans are just trash in general. Anything becomes acceptable long as the ends justifies the means.

Its just another form of tribalism. My tribe is better than yours. My dead dude in the clouds is more powerful than your dead dude in the clouds.

Definition of a useful idiot...
German authorities say the suspect in this past weekend’s lethal Berlin Pride attack had pledged allegiance to the ISIL (ISIS) armed group in a video.
The German federal prosecutor’s office said on Tuesday that investigators found the video on a phone that was in the rented minivan used to drive into a crowd of people at the festival on Saturday.
The 21-year-old suspect, Abdul Ballout, was shot dead by police on Sunday. Officials said he had attacked officers with a bladed weapon.
The video that police found was recorded on Saturday, the day of the attack that killed a 65-year-old Polish woman and injured 31 people.
The person in the video was masked, but Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt said in televised comments, “We assume the person in the video is the suspect.”
