Reply #133: I swear, sometimes I feel like DU is stuck in an infinite loop.

1. Feel free to disagree, but should you study the history of the wars that have happened since Hellenistic Greece, and especially since Rome, you will find a hard truth to accept. Religion is and has been an incredibly effective tool for motivating the masses to war. As for your claims regarding the 20th century, they have been answered time and again on DU. More times, in fact, than I care to count. Go and rehash that debate in one of those R/T threads, if you have the rigor.

2. Show me. Show me an atheist who has said what you are claiming. Then show me how you justify turning one statement you had to scour for into a generalization about the atheist POV.
