150 young people killed in Kenya because of religious differences. An Atheistic Humanitarian approach has got to be the way forward. Religion divides and hurts us!

It seems rather apparent that the ol atheistic communists have killed more persons than the religious could ever have hoped even in their wildest dreams of a global apocalypse.
Originally posted by OdBodyou think the people who are being killed care why they are being killed? 150 persons is minuscule in comparison to how many have been killed by the vehemently non religious.
With political atrocities, in the end they are overcome, problem with religion it goes on and on and is justified through divine right.

Originally posted by AgergSo no you cannot tell us how many persons have been killed by the religious, thankyou, ill leave you to believe your own propaganda, its seems a great pity to burst your bubble.
well Hitler was a Christian so religion seems to be doing pretty well on the slaughtering front ... would you now care to tell us how many people have been slaughtered through the centuries for being heretics, heathens, witches, and so on ... ?

Hitler was manifestly inspired by Darwins theories, he even wrote a book using Drawins theories as a title, 'My struggle'. He genuinely engaged in warfare not on the basis that he was an alleged Christian but on the basis that he genuinely believed that Germans were racially superior and would triumph over the weaker Slavs. Can you tell us what part his alleged religious convictions played in this, No? well you are talking pants.

Hitler used the jewish identity to justify his atrocities.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieYou seem to missing the point. All of the many non religious atrocities that you have cited WERE overcome, religion offers eternal conflict.Observing the interaction between the various religious factions on this site alone just confirms how divisive religion is!

Originally posted by stellspalfieoh dear just like an atheist religious bigot to take a single quote out of context and try to use it to make a point. Please educate yourself, its well known and understood that Hitler used Christianity only as far as it served his aims, that fact that he professed Christianity does not make him any more a Christian than a rube like you.

‘ … organized lie [that] must be smashed. The State must remain the absolute master. When I was younger, I thought it was necessary to set about [destroying religion] … with dynamite. I’ve since realized there’s room for a little subtlety …. The final state must be … in St. Peter’s Chair, a senile officiant; facing him a few sinister old women … The young and healthy are on our side … it’s impossible to eternally hold humanity in bondage and lies …. [It] was only between the sixth and eighth centuries that Christianity was imposed upon our peoples …. Our peoples had previously succeeded in living all right without this religion. I have six divisions of SS men absolutely indifferent in matters of religion. It doesn’t prevent them from going to their death with serenity in their souls.’ 56

Originally posted by OdBodI don't believe your propaganda, do you understand? as far as i am concerned you are talking pants. Religion offers no more perpetuity for war than any other motive. Politics is equally as divisive and has killed way more people we never hear you crying about that do we, why not? because you are prejudiced against religion. 1,600,000 people have been killed by the Khmer rouge in an attempt to establish an atheistic state, not a peep out of you, 150 get killed in Nigeria and you rant like there is no tomorrow, i wont call you a hypocrite but its sure looks like that to me.
