If only everyone stops believing in their bullshit humanized deities a looot of these conflicts would just vanish... But my Gods dick is bigger than your God's dick...

If you think modern Zionism is about religion in anything but name, or that Palestinian nationalism is about Islam in anything but name, what you believe is even more questionable than what they believe.

If all religion vanished overnight, the same people would be fighting over the same land with many of the same arguments, but something else substituted for the religion.

Tribalism knows no borders.

this is not about me, and my beliefs are my own to judge

but something else substituted for the religion.

I agree, but when you live in country far away from that conflict zone, and you see this kind of hate towards people who have nothing to do with it... you know it's about ideology saying it's not about religion is the same thing as saying: it's Ok to let a harmful teachings keep spreading.. why not debunk the hell out of it ? and worry about the next issue later... you can't deny Religion's role ... It's one of the biggest factors ... Explain to me why Abu Abaida starts his speeches by doing Basmala, or why this guy doing a protest is screaming Allahu Akbar..

Ideology is the core of tribalism, I didn't say it's the only factor

Nah people would find the next thing to hate each other over easily. Skin, language, clothing, it does not matter. We always find a way to separate them from us.

I agree, but

to hate each other over easily. Skin, language, clothing

what's the one thing that directly tells people that they should do all this, and it's justifiable and they blindly follow it

Most religions actually say not to be an asshole to other religions, people just ignore it.

i may be misinterpreting your comment but do you imply religion is what? cuz colonialism is by insurmountable lengths the bigger culprit

[–] electro1@infosec.pub -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I mean both of their religions teach their followers to invade other regions, it's easy to predict Jews and Muslims actions, just read their scriptures it's their written agenda... Religion is cancer .. Next question

[–] sunbather@beehaw.org 3 points 5 months ago

mind supplying concrete examples? isnt judaism literally supposed to be the religion of peace in theory? to be clear im not a fan of religion either but im also not a fan of ignoring the real issues and saying "just read their scriptures" on the assumption that what you consider to be obvious signs of this supposed agenda is the universal interpretation
