    That’s crazy how Jainism is still around then with tenets like non violence.

    Anyway, I wonder if you realize you just implied that the far right extremists of any given religion are interpreting their religion correctly (i.e. closer to the original author’s intent) by virtue of being violent.

    Like I said, it’s fine to just say a religion is morally bankrupt.

      Wow, an example of a religion made up primarily of isolated monks that make up about 0.05% of world population…

      Weird how that’s the most common example you could think of.

      But I’m not getting into a slap fight about this. Which seems to be what your looking for, so you might get want to look elsewhere

        Na I think you just realized you accidentally argued the problem IS the religions.
