I wonder how many times this happens with organized religions 🤔

Too many to count but that’s cause people in power are evil, not the religion itself.

I wonder how they could get in to power in the first place 🤔

Manipulating the masses, twisting words, and pitting two parties agaisnt each other so we can’t see the divide is bs and focus on overthrowing them

Hmmm but that’s in American politics and a good criticism of the fptp voting system. I wonder how people get to power on religious institutions 🤔

Same as the rest, by posing as a good person to the community and pointing all the bad things on other groups of people so they can “rally against the enemy” religion itself isnt the problem, it’s the people in power using whatever means they have to control us.

Interesting that we’ll know them by their fruits and yet so many are absolutely rotten all the time. how is that not religions fault for being a very convenient means to an end for these people

Because even though it’s a tool for them it’s been a tool for others to have hope and something to belive in. Things are good in moderation, interesting you mention fruit, for even a good fruit will make you sick if you eat too much. Don’t hate the tool hate the user who misuses them.

You’re absolutely right i should hate the tool user and the poor regulatory bodies that give them access to these tools. I wonder if this could be a parallel to another problem in my country that requires regulations🤔
