The world of our ancient past to our present would of been better without Christianity or Judaism, without Christianity or Judaism there would be no Islam. Imagine a world without suicide bomb vest wearing terrorists.
Without Christianity or Judaism there would of been no Marxism and communism. Think about how many genocides could of been avoided with that in 1917 onwards.
Somebody needs to teleport themselves to ancient Rome through time travel and get Julian the Apostate on the level so that the Abrahamic menace can finally be ended.
In the past, religion was more than just a belief system - it was also a way of life. Many ancient schools and hospitals were built with the foundations of faith. There still would have been terrorists, but they would have given a different excuse to be a terrorist. Not everybody who is a terrorist is religious. Also, all the major world religions forbid violence, so I wouldnât even call those who enact violence on others as âreligiousâ.
WRONG. If anything the absence of religion, at least western religion, would have only bought the backlash of capitalism to the forefront, and there probably would have been more genocide in the name of authoritarian regimes.
India is still pagan I believe, and it still has a working caste system. In such a system, youâd be born into a caste (social/economic class) and stay there for the rest of your life, as the system wonât allow you to jump castes (though India is now being nudged into loosening of castes, as can be seen from movies like Slumdog Millionaire).
Also, due to inaccessibility of information and the time it took to learn a craft, most people followed their ancestorâs (parentsâ) trades. So, if you were born into a family of farmers, youâll likely be trained to work and live as one too. And if you wanted to move into another trade, youâd likely be out of luck. Nowadays, access to information allows just about anyone to jump several economic/social classes. We no longer need a lifetime to learn a profession, or skill, like we used to. Proving this is the fact that most of the new millionaires today are self-made. Class animosity, although a subtle one, does still exist, even in the West (between those who made it from the bottom and those who made it because of family position). But the class hierarchy pyramid is slowly crumbling, as the aristocrats are no longer able to keep all of the information and access points to themselves (and also probably due to laziness of their heirs vs ambitions of those climbing up).
The Abrahamic religions worship death, conformity, authority, and hypocrisy. They truly are a blight upon this world. None of them value life or genuine independence.
The Abrahamic religions of course consists of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Hereâs to dreaming of a world without all three.
he would have travelled back in time and commit suicide. Or kill himself third person singular (not first person singular.) His old self would be killed by his travelled-back future self.
But wait⌠if he died before the future, then he could not have travelled back to the past from the future, as his own self would have died before the future had come to passâŚ
I agree with the above 'IF OnlyâŚ" but unfortunately the reality of the Abrahamic religions are here to stay for a long time. I do not hate the Abrahamic and other religions. However the Abrahamic must be weaned off [without side effects] as soon as possible.
The point is, at present, religion is a critical necessity for the majority of humans to deal with an inherent unavoidable existential crisis. Without religions the majority would be bottled up with lots of angst and anxieties.
Despite whatever their pros, it is just unfortunate for humanity that the Abrahamic religions emerged and leveraged on the primal us versus them impulse, a superiority complex, mine is the only way, and a condemnation of non-believers. Contrast the Abrahamic religions on such matters to Eastern religion like Buddhism, Hinduism [Vedanta], Jainism, Taoism, and the likes.
Whilst there are negatives from Judaism and Christianity, the facts are we do not hear of much terrible evils and violence committed by SOME of their evil prone believers. Thus we do not have to worry too much with Judaism and Christianity in contrast to the potential evils and violence from SOME* Muslims who are evil prone and inspired by evil laden verses from the Quran and other Islamic religious texts.
*some sound ok, but the reality is some 20% of evil prone Muslims would amount to 300 million evil Muslims around the world. One evil prone Muslim is sufficient to cause terrible havoc, just imagine what a potential of 300 million will do.
The seriousness of Islam is that their holy texts are supposed to be immutable till eternity and the Quran and Ahadiths contain tons of verses that are evil prone.
The fact is the 20% of potential evil prone Muslims [300 millions and increasing] is not going to be changed at least until another 100 years.
Thus the combination of 1 & 2 is a dangerous recipe for more evils & violence to come from the âSOMEâ evil prone Muslims anytime from now till as long as humanity is around.
What is more unfortunate is those who critique Islam as having an evil potential are usually accused of being Islamophobic [a non-realistic term] and are forced to shut up.
I hope there will be more criticisms of Islamâs evil potential from more people.
The Christian religion was the first attempt to defeat the Romans and Jews. But it was used as a tool to help the romans and jews, fusing the two with the genocidal Catholic empire.
Islam was created as attempt to not fail where Christianity did, creating a more militant religion to defeat the Catholics and Jews. Converting âatheistsâ to fight for their cause. Islam was attempt to fight fire with fire.
The US, ran by Jews, intentionally lit that fire in order to use Islamic extremists to further their plan of global domination (911 laws and all this Trump Zionist Air Security TSA bullshit.)
Trump is a fugginâ Zionist jew and a fascist, just saying.
The first government/manager of a paradise (Ahdam/Eve) chose to be the source of both good and evil so as to be a god (the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil).
After such is established, the burning fire of suffering is eternal. So what types of governing/religions that come about are but the aftermath of far, far worse. And usually as an attempt to reconcile how to be a god with how to be in paradise. Okay, so they couldnât get it right. They tried. They still try.
But what have you accomplished against such an extreme foe as those with the greatest wealth, power, and aspirations to be God,the ultimate dictator, even though in the name of anti-religion governments (aka âSocialism/Communismâ)? Just because the label doesnât say âreligionâ, doesnât mean that they donât lust to be God. What is says on the tin, is merely salesmanship.
The social egalitarianism of communism even under a fascist dictator form still came out of Christianity. Communism is the material secularist cousin of Christianity.
Government has its origins within religion. There really isnât much of a difference between religion and government. With religion a deity of divine origin is god whereas with government an organization of men are god over all other people. Political law was an evolution from divine law.
Authentic freedom and competition comes from nature not from some fictional construct of god or secular authority.
They are all violent religions. Anybody who has read the Talmud, Bible, and Quran thoroughly knows this. All three religions are ones of total social bondage.
Imagine a world without suicide bomb vest wearing terrorists.
evil Muslims around the world. One evil prone Muslim is sufficient to cause terrible havoc, just imagine what a potential of 300 million will do.
