I don't like that the word men was used when women in the same position do the exact same shit throughout history.

Bullshit, It's only money/power. I once saw a sock that was left on the road that had more religious conviction.

you leave Sock Jesus out of this. he's doing his best.

No no, it's other people religious conviction that enabled them to do evil things.

Not saying they ACTUALLY have it but it sure makes a convenient cloak and it works on so many idiots.

When you claim an invisible entity instructed you to do something, and those listening, haven’t read the Bible, it’s incredibly easy.

"people"... not just men

[Insert Deity] always makes a perfect scapegoat, after all, if you disagree, you're clearly a heathen[etc], or don't have enough 'faith.'

Bad men will do evil, and good men will do good. It takes religion to make good men do evil.

Where do you see sheep's clothing? They're pretty open and straightforward

I find there's an awful lot of people who truly believe that god agrees with them 100% of the time.
Battle4Seattle
I don't recall the NAZI's, Chinese Communists, or Pol Pot being particularly religious. All of them were/are still pretty evil though.
DukeSamuelVimes
Yeah, that's bullshit. This post itself tastes more like propaganda then anything else. People do evil shit for the sake of doing evil shit.
DukeSamuelVimes
You think the people fucking America or even pictured here do there bullshit in the name of God? Hell nah, they use the name of God to gain

drive evil than the fact that all the greatest atrocities commited by the most evil men in the greatest period of seculariry in history,
DukeSamuelVimes
have all been commited under secularist ideologies. Look at Stalin, Mao, Mussolini, even Hitler. None of them were religious, they were

human, and they did there things, as all evil men do, for human desires, be it greed for wealth, power or recognition.

Ideologies can basically be a religion. Take communism: it had promises of a better future, a dogma you weren't allowed to question, a (1)

I think we’ve seen plenty of cheerful secular capitalist evil
Sands5
I am sure you are right but do you have examples?
Babybunz
Slavery, unspeakable labor exploitation, war profiteering, bringing us into global extinction for short term profit to name a few
Sands5
Slavery was justified by Christians. https://time.com/5171819/christianity-slavery-book-excerpt/
Babybunz
You realize capitalism still uses slavery?
Cryolith
Anytime someone uses profit to justify human suffering, you are seeing capitalist evil.

Bozos and Musk come to mind. Mask it behind religion, technology, or convenience. It's all just brokering power.

*Mother Theresa has entered the chat*
AgnosticPaladin
In case you didn't know, she was a horrible human with a torture fetish. The "hospitals" she sponsored offered no cure, just religion.
AgnosticPaladin
She even said something along the lines of: "suffering takes you closer to God", and didn't want to see that suffering lessened. Look it up.
GlenL
Her philosophy was basically "Jesus suffered, and so should you"
GlenL
Yeah, that's why I'm calling her an evil person who hid behind religion.
AgnosticPaladin
It was not clear, your comment could've been interpreted as "look at all those wonderful things a Christian did".
