This is one instance out of several I covered. The assertion was that ALL wars had that religious undertone. I say not all do.
9/11 was a terrorist act, done by an isolated group, not a religion. They used religion though as their reasoning. However if you go back, like to the Iran thing and the Shah their issue was not religion but American meddling in Middle Eastern affairs. It was not religion. IF you took the Religion out, they would still hate us. They would still want to bomb us.

These posts are only so long, so I try to be brief. But, come on, the massacres of Christians by Muslims and other Religions in other Countries is well known and documented.

We are talking about WARS. However did you bother to note that I said what happens in Sudan is over religion? I guess now. But the point is WARS...not inter country persecutions, is NOT ALWAYS undertoned by religion.

This isn't even an arguement. India, Iran, Iraq, Africa, Egypt, Sudan, Indonesia, and the list goes on, these Countries have murdered millions of Christians because of Faith problems.

That is called PERSECUTION, not WAR

Even Hitler murdering over 11 million in concentration camps. It was his ideal. His moral concept of Faith that the World would be a better place without these people.

Hitler had a social vision. He wanted a pure Aryan race. Religion didn't matter. That is not religion. That is sociology. That is politics. That is racism, but that is not necessarily religion.

It's only been until recently that Global accountability has stopped some of this autrocity. But even now, we cover our Wars with our Morals and justify the killing by our Banner or Flag.

Flag is not religion. Morality is not religion.
