129. How about the empirical observation that Christianity has been used to kill/control for CENTURIES
Hmmmm...let's see. Where to begin? Let's name a few instances of religion-caused ignornance and strife:
Crusades Spanish Inquisition Protestant Reformation Mountain Meadows Massacre Northern Ireland (ongoing) Central Asian conflicts (ongoing) Israel vs. their neighbors etc.
I could go on-and-on. If religion lends to its followers intelligent thought and a love for logic, then why is it the underpinning for most of the world's woes since the inception of Western European monothesism?
