    We’re using fancy words now to seem smart? Works better if you know what they mean.

    Okay:

    Cancer
    Cult

    So now that we’ve gotten definitions out of the way, can we acknowledge what century we are in?

    I mean in the middle ages people didn’t even have a choice about their religion and I hope you are not trying to tell me crusades and literal witch hunts are not cult behaviour.

    At which point did I say 80% of Europeans are currently involved in Crusades or Literal Witch Hunts?

    My point was currently, right now, 80% of the population believe in one religion or another. Support for left wing ideals, such as social programs and rights for LGBTQ+ far exceeds 20% of the population. The problem is not religion. The problem is hateful closed minded people who use religion as an excuse to be hateful and close minded.
