4.the brain also creates philosophy and science. Does that fact make religion and science somehow illegitimate concerns?

You did not include his point 4 when you responded. You skipped over that point while, oddly, quoting it.
Addressing point 3 alone is sufficient to support the main point of the OP, i.e. the 'Brain Creates Religion.'
The points in 4 don't seem to follow, i.e. philosophy and science to religion and science.
The brain creates religions, but SOME religions are inherently evil, e.g. The Religion of Peace which has evil laden elements in their holy texts that inspire evil prone believers to commit evils and violence in the name of their God as a divine duty.
There are loads of other evils acts by evil prone Muslims around the world.
This is evidence the belief itself is wrong. Can you dispute this?
Don't take this as my being a fan of Islam, but here you are saying that YOU know what evil is. You are an objective judge of what evil and I presume good actions are. That's problem 1, just like the theists you know what objective good and evil are. Problem 2 is that you say that if some Muslims perform evil acts then the belief is wrong. Islam is a complicated set of beliefs, so it is sloppy to refer to it as a belief when it is many. It is also many believers.
The statement: in any given belief X, if some believers of X commit acts of violence, that belief is incorrect. That just does not work. It would undermine every system of belief including those underpinning science. In fact it is used by Muslims in relation to many Western beliefs and it is also fallacious when they use it.
Note I have spent almost 3 years full time researching and analyzing on Islam, so I have a reasonable knowledge of Islam - the ideology [a belief].
I am also doing a project on What is Evil?
The credibility of my views that Islam is inherently evil starts with real evidences, i.e.

and many others loads of evil acts committed by SOME Muslims [within a potential pool of 300 million

] who are evil prone [a natural %] quoting directly from the holy texts from God.
There are many reasons why Muslims commit evil acts on non-Muslims. We have the intellectual onus to break down all the various reasons and trace them to their ultimate root cause in terms of criticalness. I have done so and found out the ultimate root cause is the inherent elements of evil in the doctrine itself.
If we were to analyse the statistics [30K+] I linked above, the majority of them are related to politics on the surface. But a deeper analysis will lead us to its link to the doctrines of Islam as represented in their holy books from God.
I have quoted reference from evil prone Muslims themselves who declared the main reason why they kill non-Muslims is not political but rather it is theological, i.e. the are disbelievers.
Read this to be informed of the truth:
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-new ... ns-8533563I can understand why you raised your questions which are very superficial and that is because you lack the relevant knowledge. I suggest you read the whole Quran at least 20 times and research on what is Evil in relation to its anthropological, neuroscientific, psychological and other elements.
Christianity is a pacifist and a not violent religion,
OK, In my universe this is not correct. Do you have any idea, for example, how many Muslim children have been killed by Christians? A little history going further back in time also might be useful. Though you don't have to go back in time far at all to answer my question about kids.[/quote][/quote]As I had stated, Christianity in essence and its ethos has an overriding pacifist maxim, i.e. 'love your enemies, love your neighbor, give the other cheek, etc.
Those Christians whoever has killed Muslim children or anyone will face God's wrath when they meet God or Jesus on Judgment Day, i.e.
Say God or Jesus: WTF .... I told you in the Bible to love your enemies and Thou Shalt Not Kill. You are now punished in Hell
I presume the Christian killer will plead for mercy and give his justifications. Being a merciful God, the killer will be punished relative to the severity and the justifications.
I am a progressive human being, a World Citizen, NOT-a-theist and not religious.
