If god did create religion, he would relay the message to the world in a clearer form instead of creating all this unnecessary confusion and disagreement. The end goal of religion is power. Since we cannot rationally and logically come to truth with religion (e.g. Jesus was born without a father, Eve was made from Adam’s rib), all that’s left is violence. That’s how you prove your religion is the right one: violence. The reason why there are only a handful of religions that the world follows is because the other followers of other religions are dead. This is why people of all faiths can’t be peaceful together. Even within their own faith, they fight over disagreements. Christians and Muslims kill each other because they’re part of different sects.

For example, let’s say a new religion appeared that suggested that you must fight the non believers. An intentional vague statement. Fight them literally or spiritually or metaphorically? Either way, some will interpret it violently. So now the “peaceful Christian” has to either fight back or turn the other cheek. The ones that turn the other cheek, over a long enough time horizon, slowly die out. What’s left are the survivors who think violence is acceptable. The vagueness of religion, the belief that it’s open for interpretation, and the lack of evidence required for loyal followers is the problem. Religious people twist this around thinking it’s a strength.

A Christian who kills isn't a Christian. I'd argue the same for Muslims, though that's their business, not mine.

God gave ample proof by way of geometry. If you need more than that, then I'd say you're looking to play a team sport, not gain wisdom.

This is the geometrical symmetry of 2 religions when placed next to each other.

Do you not see how religions can never get along with each other? Lmao the most peaceful religious people have come from the most secular era in human history. Christians were not peaceful until the ruling class found a more efficient way to control the masses: democracy

Yeah, and I've also noticed that 99℅ of religious violence is between Abrahamic religions. Its like there's some structural defect inherited from the progenitor. Hard not to notice.

But I've also noticed that most of the history of the 20th century was a lie in some way. Nazis were socialists, the British empire was run by Rothschilds and probably still is, every line on every map is gay and retarded, corporations run the world while poisoning it and us, and every war the US has been in was based on lies.

But the religions lie, too. A lot. So what's the difference?

I don't want you to join a religion. If that happened, I'd consider my time wasted.

Correct. It’s a distraction. The longest lie that people have eaten up since the beginning: die for the elite and you’ll get into heaven in the next life. Hey buddy I got a bridge to sell you.

Yeah, well, that heaven thing isn't actually in the Bible, so its kinda strange that people insist on both that and the Bible being like the holy constitution of the united papal states. That was an actual country once, you should totally look it up.

I’ve read about Heaven from the Bible so idk what you’re talking about. Unless you’re gonna tell me that Heaven means something different in Aramaic lol either way this is sloppy
