I make no apology that I make atheists such as yourself question a little deeper about the nature of reality, I know it is irksome.

The vast majority have always been the religious, and only a statistical fool will try to pin recent wars on the non-religious.

Really?

Which of the major wars of the 20th Century was "religious"? The first and second World Wars? The Cold War? The Korean War? The Vietnam War? The Spanish Civil War? The Boer War? Because already, you have, in just the two world wars, vast majority of people ever killed in any war, anytime.

So there's obviously no way you're right.

The mainstream religions continue to be homophobic and misogynous and adore a genocidal god.

What possible benefit to us are they when they discriminate against half the world population without a just cause?

My point is we need to separate the doctrines and ideology of each religion from its believers.

• 1. Religions: There are [a] good and [.b] bad/evil religions
  2. Believers: There are [a] good and [.b] bad people.

The most evil religion is Islam while Christianity has bad elements.

In the case of Christianity has an overriding pacifist maxim such as 'love all - even enemies' [love all humans] that meant the doctrines of Christianity do not permit Christians to hate humans like homosexuals, be sexists and be negative toward any other human.
Even though there are negative verses on homosexuality in the Bible, the 'love all' verses override them. Thus if any Christian were to hate or kill human[s], hate homosexuals, be sexists they cannot be doing that upon the doctrines of Christianity.
As such those Christians who killed and commit evil acts were doing it as bad people [2b] and not driven by the doctrines of Christianity which are good [1a].

In the case of Islam, the religion is inherently evil [1a].
Within the 1.5 billion Muslims there are bad people [2b] which is about 20% [best guess] which is 300 millions and these bad people will natural be inclined to feast on the "unconditional" evil elements within the doctrines of Islam. The consequences are so evident.

Anybody is gullible who puts their faith in the ideology of any religious body.

All ideologies are corrupt, never mind corruptible.

The word Christianity leaps off the page, with respect to answer yor question.
"Christ is seen as a divine being which has taken human form in order to lead humanity back to the Light.".
This is bullshit.
What else ya got?

From Stanford:
According to the Gnostics, this world, the material cosmos, is the result of a primordial error on the part of a supra-cosmic, supremely divine being, usually called Sophia (Wisdom) or simply the Logos. This being is described as the final emanation of a divine hierarchy, called the Plêrôma or “Fullness,” at the head of which resides the supreme God, the One beyond Being. The error of Sophia, which is usually identified as a reckless desire to know the transcendent God, leads to the hypostatization of her desire in the form of a semi-divine and essentially ignorant creature known as the Demiurge (Greek: dêmiourgos, “craftsman”), or Ialdabaoth, who is responsible for the formation of the material cosmos. This act of craftsmanship is actually an imitation of the realm of the Pleroma, but the Demiurge is ignorant of this, and hubristically declares himself the only existing God.
It's just a bunch of ancient mumbo-jumbo.

You quote our myth and think we are literalists. That is your first mistake.
