So organized religion, cult like behaviour, concentrated power, wars and persecution in the guise of religion, worshiping and being falsely led by people because they are 'chosen' by or doing Gods work is bad? I agree that's why I no longer practice and my relationship with God is personal, as it should be.
Don't come at me with all the Catholic hate and act like the Evangelicals are all rainbows and unicorns, pathetic.
Why don’t you pipe up, apologise for the crimes of your church
Don't be stupid!
Then you should read my post again before calling me stupid
I suggested that joining with these evangelicals, that mixing religion, any religion with politics was not a good idea
Nor Catholic or Protestant, you were the person moaning about how bad evangelicals are, I just pointed out your hypocrisy acting all righteous and arrogant when your church has mass murdered millions in political power
I was calling you stupid for telling me to apologize for something I never did.
Also, for the second time, I was not just moaning about Evangelicals! I called the video cringey, then moaned about religious people in general. It was you who decided to jump in and start spouting off for an ego boost.
As to the point of the OP, we agree then!

And the Christian one is by far the most deserving of your scorn? Why do those who are strong against religions accept islam or Hinduism has a place, but never Christianity?
I agree, it’s place is not in government.

And what are christ's teachings? Don't murder, treat your neighbor with love, ect... Do we need christ for that?

Love , redemption, and freedom are all universal human qualities that don't require religion. I like christ but the rest of the bible is full of terror and his birth story is a copycat of horus (egypt).
We don't need religion because we are better than that. At least, some of us are... We are better than forced ideology.

Just to bring you up to speed, WE invaded THEIR country. Under fraud. That may be a bit too sophisticated for you to grasp intellectually, but that's where it's at.
They and he are defending their region from invading aggressors. They are on the right side of things acting in self defense, we are on the wrong side, acting aggressively.
So, you sympathies with terrorists, good to know who is openly against western civilization really.
