Oh no I quite have, no where did I say people wont find ways to kill each other. But religion isn’t the bloodless doctrine it portrays itself to be. But since you mentioned the Holocaust it is arguable that was a religious motivated event as people saw Hitler as a infallible god. Nazi ism was their religion and nazis even messed with the occult.

Ooh interesting. So if there’s an infallible god we can count it as religion?

It’s not an atheist genocide when it’s not motivated by atheism. People can follow more than one doctrine. An ultra nationalist can go to church but an attack on foreigners would be a nationalist motive and not a Christian one.

How would you define “motivated by atheism” here?

The desire to wipe out religious people in general and that was not a big thing in history. What’s more common is the desire to wipe out “heretics”.
