Christians conquered and maintained Europe with violence and manipulation, as did Islam in the Middle East and North Africa.
Zionist Judaism (which is blasphemy according to the Torah) invaded Palestine and set up a far-right apartheid state.
Europe used Christianity for political unity, establishing the Catholic Church to control the illiterate masses. Christianity could control anyone, people who dressed in robes and claimed to represent God's intentions had full control over society, and they restricted every aspect of life.
Many people can't even name a religion that doesn't rely on controlling its adherents, because leftist religions have been created and maintained by minds rather than armies.
I am a Panentheist. Pantheism is a religion with ancient roots in Greece, India and Egypt.
Pantheism states that the universe is God, and everything we see is just God's appearance. Panentheism is the same, except believing God constructed the universe with intelligence and that God's nature is not limited to the universe.
This means that the universe is a part of God's nature but is not the entirety of it.
Panentheism has been around a long time, but most are unfamiliar with it because authoritarian religions would not let such a thing gain momentum. Despite having a doctrine that aligns with science and explains what science fails to tell us, Panentheism is eclipsed by non-scientific religions like Christianity. Because science is a threat to these religions, they persecute Pantheists.
Giordano Bruno, a 16th-century Italian philosopher and cosmologist, was executed for his pantheistic views; he was burned at the stake by the Roman Inquisition in 1600 for identifying God with the infinite universe.
Christians can only defend their lies by killing people. They don't want to allow words that fracture their faith or the faith of people they control, so they eliminate the people that say them.
In contrast, the church of Pantheism allows difference in opinion, would never kill anyone, and also recognizes that you don't have to be a part of the official church to be a Pantheist or a Panentheist.
The only way for scientific religions to thrive is for non-scientific ones to be discarded. Then philosophers will stop being killed and also stop having to repeatedly argue with ancient books that preach nonsense.
The world would be better without oppressive religions, enforcing false realities with war.
