Some people are in so much pain because of a difficult life that they have nothing else. Those people should be allowed to keep their religion. If it gives them comfort during dark times, and it’s not hurting anyone, then I am in full support of them keeping it.
And I wouldn’t want anyone deciding my religion for me. What right do I have to do it to someone else?
I think you’re trying to counter something I didn’t say, lol. I never said “we wouldn’t have wars if rich people and their kids had to fight in them”.
I said “Cool that’s not how it works now” because it’s a century later than the war paradigm you described and that’s not how it works anymore.
