You are wrong about saying religion is responsible millions of deaths, it's the extremists, and yes, there are extremists for every religion, that cause these deaths.wash said:Because religion is the reason for the war, not the weapon. Religion does nothing but cause harm. I agree with most Christian dogma because it advocates good living. But other people have contradictory beliefs and different gods, so that doesn't coincide well. And trying to compromise over religion doesn't work at all, considering most religious people are close minded anyway. But yes, religion is responsible for millions of deaths one way or another.

1763 wars overall have been documented, an estimated 7% of those have been of religious purposes.
The fact that you think religion is controlling everything/everyone is quite hilarious, and about the gay statement, I'll give you that, that a lot of religious people don't like gays, but a lot of the religious people I know are neutral on the argument.wash said:Ok ill give you that its the extremists, because it is. But even so, the amount of evil that exists because of religious doctrine is ironic, considering what most religions try achieve is peace. Christians mistreat gays terribly, and not even the extremists, most Christians will tell you gays are abominations. Christians used to be for slavery, they truly believe God created blacks inferior to whites. And that was almost EVERY Southerner, not just the extremists. Imagine how much better the world would be without religion controlling everything.

Example: If you're gay, that's cool, I don't have any place to judge you, but if you're gonna be a dick about it and call everyone who doesn't support homosexuality a homophobe, then there is a problem.
And PS, times have changed.
No, religion isn't/shouldn't be a tool to justify violence.Leader said:Religion is a tool which allows people to justify violence against others. People think they are justified in mass amounts of violence if they do it "in the name of god".
