Oh? God told you to take their homes away? With violence?
That changes everything! Please continue.
For those not in the know, this is literally the founding story of Israel - God told them to genocide the Canaanites and steal their land. What we’re seeing here is violence that continues to be perpetuated by religious traditions (about events which never really happened, according to biblical scholars).
Religion is the worst invention ever
And the state of Israel the second worst
But I was emphatically told this was not what they were doing by several apologists! They wouldn’t have lied, would they?!
They have been doing this for more than 70 years. Israel exists on stolen Palestinian land.
“Nonono, I was told it was Hamas!” 😐
what the fuck is wrong with humans
We’re greedy fucks and vulnerable to bubbles. There’s a concept that humans have a strong internal moral compass and some of us might. Most people though, just go with the flow, and let the people around them guide their morals - this seems to happen especially awfully in religious communities. Weirdly enough a fair number of awful religious people seem aware of how immoral they are and repeat the thought “Without God’s guidance we’d be animals” which just highlights how awful they actually are.
Where did I hear that before?
They will openly say this and still the US does nothing to stop it
Just like North America, when the British sent their religious fanatics to colonize their new colonies.
