Matthew,


Agreed on Buddhaism.

so your theory that the world is in the shape it's in now
due to religion does not ring completely true.


Not exclusively because of religion, but looking back, it is one of the
primary propaganda machines to bring evil over the world. Of course it
is still humans killing humans, but religion seems to work
exceptionally well as a motivator.

Agreed. What you've identified is the tool of the demagogue, not his
motivation, which is far more primal.
