    You confuse justification for cause. Again my argument that even in a world in which somehow organized religion never developed, the same violence would have happened under a different pretense or even no pretense at all.

    “I want what you have and I can take it, so I will” is enough justification in a perfectly rational non religious world for any kind of war and violence.

      In a world where religion never developed, nothing would have changed? Then it rather clearly carries that it’s sole use has been to introduce some exploitable divisions in our non-hypothetical universe. I’m sorry, I think you’re actually making my case for me at this point.

      (I’m not confusing boo, and don’t presume to tell me what I mean.)
