once again, why does the justification matter? why can't you ever make a coherent argument?
if you want to blame religion for mass murder committed by governments, you need to grapple with the fact that areligious governments also commit mass murders of equal or greater proportions
the fact that areligious governments don't justify their murders in the name of irreligion is neither here nor there. the issue is the actual commission of mass murder, not the justification. if a religious government and an areligious government are going to commit the same exact atrocities, what possible difference does the associated rhetoric make? it's window dressing
