Muslims want the west out of Muslim lands (a pretty fair ideal imo), they were trying to send a message. Yes their religion (which I despise) played a big part but so does politics and economics. We steal their oil from their lands and get rich, they get very little from it, apart from America's little Middle Eastern bitches who get stinking rich.

TO RELIGIOUS PEOPLE: there is little more heinous a thing than attempting to defend your religion by weighing up the ratio of murder and pain it has caused compared with the actions of the non-religious. What an accolade! What a marvelous selling point that is. boy your standards are sub-zero aren't they? i'm genuinely off to vomit now...

my grandmother is in her nineties - three years ago she told me that i'm gonna go to hell and be tortured (in graphic detail) cos i don't pray. what hope do many people have with that kind of an education? this country has a lot to be grateful for when there are cultures like that around. we are still 99.5% biologically primitive - but give it a few hundred thousand years longer and we might find religion is all but gone! lol

can we stop splitting hairs about whether religion or secularism has killed more people?
it's like arguing over who's baby has done the biggest shit in their nappy today.
humans can suck across the board - but unlike secularism - religion is a big fat confused hypocritical lie from head to toe. secularism is the absence of a homogonous creed - hence humans are blamed for their individual actions, and rightly so. there's my disjointed 2 pennies

Science will come to find that life is abundant in the universe. Which will mean that we didn't come about, the way that spooky book of lies says it happened.
Then your backward superstitious religion will die. And humans can progress foreward.
And we can make better use of money and time....And stop this nonsense!

Your telling me - that september 11 was not a religious based "holy war" as the guy who perpetrated it loves to say. come on man, political based? NO COUNTRY ON EARTH STOOD TO GAIN FROM IT! it was an act against the "western infidels". As with the london bombings - you might have heard of them, Madrid as well. politically based my ass, the quran tells these religious freaks to fight those who "slander" Allah, not to take out stock market neccessities-so the world falls into a monatary black hole

and yes - those events, plus the many millions more easily reach the number of 70 million. considering most of it happened over about 100 YEARS each.

alzheimer's victims make more sense then you idiot.
Religion, ESPECIALLY christianity IS a goddamn cause of death. everytime some moron blows himself up, executes someone or goes genocidal on a peaceful group of people (your beloved faith idiot) religion is at fault.
and yes - the Generations ago, those people who are still coping shit today, because of your religion - should still be pissed.

So you're saying black people should hate white people because of what white people did generations ago? I really am glad I'm not you then, that I don't have to wallow in my own self pity and resentment at history.

lmao. Mate are you seriously that stupid? The original remark which i questioned was "Anyway religion has killed far more people than both of them. " so where does that say religion was the CAUSE of death? It says it killed them! Honestly, I work with some mentally disabled children and they seem more intelligent and capable of following a line of thought than you. Close Youtube, pretend it didn't happen. It's a little embarrassing.
