      Interesting take after about a century of World Wars, Cold War and other global conflicts that where mostly not about religion at all.

      Conflating Zionism and Judaism is anti-Semitism. Jewish people are overwhelmingly against the settler colonialist apartheid regime of Israel.

      I don’t think so. The religions are an easy way to legitimate wars but they are not the first reason for them. (And look at Buddhism. They found a way to a healthy lifestyle. ~Fake News. I didn’t know what happend in Myanmar and Burma for example.)

        And look at Buddhism. They found a way to a healthy lifestyle.

        Unfortunately even Buddhist aren’t perfect. Just look what’s going on in Burma/Myanmar.

        But regardless it’s correct that Religion often is used as a tool for parties to gain and exercise political power.

            That’s okay. I thought the same thing before. That Buddhism was the least of the worst because of their anti violence stance. But it turns out religion is religion.
