Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

I've said it many times before and I'll say it again. Wars are brought upon mankind via human error. In other words, people kill people, people do harm to other people, not religion. Religion cannot be blamed for the errors of mankind. Religion cannot be blamed where humanity falls short.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

Human error is a weak, nonthinking approach to it. Perhaps it was human error, but what error was it?I would say that a lot of the time, that human error was religion.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

You people need to stop blaming religion for everything. Its not your scapegoat. I suppose the Civil War in Syria is a religious war right now based on the way your acting.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

Are you serious?I already said that WWI AND WWII were not religious wars. I DID name quite a few wars that WERE based on religion.Are religious people always this deceptive? The debate title includes "Religion never caused any wars".I did not say religion causes all wars. I said religion causes many wars that could have been avoidable.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

Human error a weak, nonthinking approach to it? You're full of shit Mackindale. Human error, human demise, the indifference of good man, these things are the problem. Human beings do dumb shit, they dont do dumb shit because of their religion, they do dumb shit because they're human and mankind is not perfect. Do not blame religion for what people do, the people are the problem. You blame religion for so much, you are complete bullshit and your logic is bullshit, if you continue to state that human error is religion. Fuck that noise and anything you say Mackindale.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

I'm afraid you're dead wrong.Religion doesn't cause every war, but what else can spur a person to kill another without guilt?For God and country, they say. The entire US military is at least 80% Christian, but likely much more. The entire Iraq war was because George Bush had said "God told me to go after terrorists" http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2005/oct/07/iraq.usa But you know what? You are religious, aren't you? Obviously you're simply insulted because I called you part of the problem.What I say isn't bullshit. It's what you say. You can't even prove that your supernatural bullshit is real. Yet there is war in the name of god. Political agendas too, perhaps, but what man would fight for another man's riches? Only if that man thought he was fighting for a god would mass numbers commit themselves to war.From the Crusades to the Inquisition to the terrorist attacks to the Iraq war, religion has played a part in all of those. WWI and WWII were not quite as religious, yet even Hitler was still a Christian, trying to wipe out Jews, a religious and racial sect. It may have been more racial than anything else, but if the Jewish religion and Christian religion did not exist, would Hitler have done the same? -Human error can account for many things, but the names of those errors are greed, religion, division and political agendas.No one sane can blame religion 100%, but no one sane could say religion did not contribute either.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

Also, did you just have a temper tantrum?Like, "Fuck that noise and anything you say Mackindale."I can imagine you literally shouting and perhaps crying in real life as you say that.Try to calm down. It's only the internet. and I do not tell you what you believe in is wrongYou wrote that before. Why don't you?Why don't you SHOW me that I'm wrong? If you're going to get so angry at me and tell me I'm full of lies, despite the fact that the phrase "holy war" is an actual phrase, if you're going to say your god is real, then why don't you show me the truth?You can't, can you?You can wish or pray for proof, but nothing will happen. You're simply wrong. I don't see why you fight for these indoctrinated lies. It seems almost pitiful watching you get so angry, despite the fact that you can't prove anything. Why don't you find proof then?Despite religion's weak logic and weak evidence now, it doesn't mean it's not real.All you need to do is show me that it's real.If you can't do this, then you are no better than a hobo with a cardboard sign around him telling me that demons are out to eat me.Or something crazy. I was going to say "burn in hell forever if I didn't believe him", but hobos don't say that as often as priests and religious people.Yes, they do say that.People do say that. Please realizethat peoplesay-You will-burn-in-hell-forever-If I don't believe in their god.If you don't realize that "burning in hell forever" for not believing in a certain religion is insane beyond belief, then I am afraid you are no different than the rest of them, and that you are also insane.Even if you don't share that particular belief of hell, it is the same concept of "Believe what I believe because I say so."It's just pitiful that wars and oppression and division and hate exist- because of religion. There are other causes, of course, but when it comes down to it, I see race, religion and culture in the way of peace and loving coexistence far more than any other aspect.Can you think of other causes of strife and war and pain in the world? You say that people are weak, they are greedy and selfish, they don't choose peace when the option is there, they don't share their food with the hungry- or do they? Perhaps some people do choose peace. Perhaps that's why I'm on a debate site and not starting the atheist revolution to wipe out all religious people. Perhaps an angry debate is preferable to real bloodshed to me. Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

did you just have a temper tantrum?You seem to have that effect of theists.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

Yes, I do. >;DAlso, you have foiled the ability for me to edit the debate.I was going to add"Why do religious people, especially Christians, always make humans out to be so flawed and evil and horrible?I am sure that it is only religious people who say that humans are so evil and twisted, for many humanists I know, those who believe in the power of human ingenuity and our own ability to live to bring peace and happiness to the world think that humans are actually quite wonderful, despite our flaws. It seems only pitiful that religious people point to such evil in mankind, while blissfully ignoring the damage their untrue and violent religions cause."

Sorry :P .
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

Lol a temer tantrum? Is this the 3rd grade class for atheists? Aw I believe it is. Whoops, I believe I am in the wrong grade and class, I'm supposed to be in grade infinity and beyond in the class of ultimate knowledge and assurance. Well then, it was semi nice speaking with you, or sorry, debating with you. Um, if you come around to it and stop blaming god for most evil in life, or when you're finished using extremists within religions and being extreme atheist yourself, or when you're finished being SPOON FED everything and anything in this life, or when you're finished calling religious people lairs and insane, or when you're done claiming theists need to prove something to you, or when you're done being arrogant about atheism then I will continue discussions with you. But as it seems, this is not possible, your feet are cemented in concrete and you believe your base is strong yet you cannot move forward. SO, while you are stuck in the ground without any idea or desire of moving forward, I will look behind me and see Mackindale cursing to the skies wondering what the hell happened.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

All I've noticed from you is that you consistently spell "liar" wrong, spelling it "lair" instead.And no, there are quite a few more reasons that a god doesn't exist besides evil in the world and no proof.It is sad that you are so stuck on the idea that baseless assumptions should be treated with respect.Give me a reason so believe you or respect your ideas and I will.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

"Give me a reason so believe you or respect your ideas and I will."And you actually meant to say "give me a reason TO believe you..." no "so".. So I say fuck that again, you're pin pointing words that I choose to spell incorrectly that which once again proves that you look for certain mistakes and magnify them even though they mean NOTHING to the point being made. From you ------> All I've noticed from you is that you consistently spell "liar" wrong, spelling it "lair" instead. So once again, I will say "fuck that noise" (which in actuality these words are slang and few people realize what this means) You are a joke to debate with because you call people WETARDED (or, retarded) names, like "LAIR" (or liar), and "ignant" (or, ignorant), and you're words are full of bull shit. That's b-u-l-l PLUS s-h-i-t. Is that clear enough for you? Whomever speaks to you is already at a loss because your standards and "the bar" is raised so high that no one can touch it; you don't want to hear or understand what you don't want to hear or understand. You atheists, especially you, on this create debate site claim to look for efficient and "facts" on why theists believe yet you already feel deep down there is nothing a man of faith can say to you to prove it to you, as said above, people are already at a loss when debating with you on theism. Oh and for the record, Richard Dawkins recently was interviewed and in that interview a question was asked somewhere in the lines of "If you died and somehow met God after life what would you ask him" and Dawkins replied somewhere in the lines of "I would ask him which God are you? Are you Yaweh? Are you Baal? [ect]... I would also ask him, why did you hide away from us?" < - - - - Ah, and the truth may set you free. I've learn something about you atheist from that last question: "Why did you hide away from us?" And that is atheist are hurt, they are deeply wounded in that they feel left behind, they feel betrayed of the truth in perfect form, they chase after the red dragon and feel they're left alone to figure out this universe on their own. Very interesting indeed, Mackindale.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

You are very childish, aren't you?There is a difference in a typo and consistently spelling a word wrong, or I would have mentioned it the first time I noticed your error. What you say is stupid. You still haven't given me a reason to believe you or take you seriously. You again tell me I'm wrong, but you don't back yourself up. You say atheists are hurt, which means it is clear you don't understand atheism. You see only the atheist arguments, but you cannot understand the mentality. I do understand religious mentality, because I was once religious. You are half as knowledgeable as me on these things, because you have only seen it from view. You type as if you knew some grand secret, but the truth is that you're full of shit and deluded.It's sad, isn't it, that you think you're wise. You're not wise.You know how I know? You've never once refuted a single argument I've made. You've tried to counter them or make them look bad. You've tried to make me look closed or narrow minded, but you've never actually beaten an argument with logic or sense or evidence.You're talking, but your words only make you appear wise to a fool. To anyone smarter than that, they can easily pick up on your own blown up sense of self worth because you think you're right.But I'm smarter than that. I already know that the more you know, the more you know you don't know. If you can tell me there's a reason to believe in a god, to accept an absolute existence of this sort of being, then I can beat that reasoning by saying "prove it". Until then, everything you say is pseudo-intelligent bullshit written to insult and attempt to manipulate people.You're wrong. Your god isn't real. Any insult or logic I add to that is superfluous, but the core argument is "Prove you are correct and that I'm wrong."You can't because you're wrong. If all was known about the universe instantly, I would be correct. There is no god.If there is, then prove it. Otherwise, you can read through history and gloat at your religious empires having enslaved, oppressed, lied to and killed billions of people, engaged in your wars and inquisitions, and read of the riches they've made and still have, giving me the future, where mankind doesn't have to believe in the supernatural to be happy and find love and enjoy life. Where we can be free from your insane tyrannical system of bowing to a non-existent god.

"If all was known about the universe instantly, I would be correct. There is no god.If there is, then prove it.

Where we can be free from your insane tyrannical system of bowing to a non-existent god."Once again, my beliefs in any god have been attacked, and they're slim on your part. What's wrong with believing in so-called fairy tales; werewolves, fairies, santa claus, god, or unicorns? It is obvious how that affects you, that people believe in these "crazy" ideas and none of it can be true? Or if it is true, then you place it on the shoulders of those who believe to suit your needs? It's like you're calling out to those like myself, proclaiming to the highest mountain tops "Show me your god!". And when those who believe attempt to explain how they know god, those of extreme and those of balance; both are degenerate in your mind; the answer you seek is but tainted by your contradictory thoughts. You shout out these questions to the universe and when those who believe in said questions, answer in whichever way possible you continue to ask the question, which is normal. As if one person is going to one day come across you anywhere and tell you the secrets of life and death; that everything will be fucking okay. I am in the wisest form of this day and fuck you for telling me otherwise, you even said, we don't fucking know anything but we strive to life. Mankind has lived in it's world for ages upon ages, and you think your words have much effect on those who believe? Sure they may make us rise and shout, but your words have little effect there guy. I have no problem with what you believe in, it's how you're claiming those who believe must present you something. Find your own fucking clue and figure that shit out yourself, I have no obligation to prove to you shit, anything. End of story.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

Then don't prove it to me?This is a debate site, isn't it? I mean, do you think I do think with every religious person I meet? I am just curious because it's clear that every religious argument on this site is beaten down instantly, yet people still have faith.I am thinking it is either indoctrination, fear or delusion. Unless you can prove that it's actually real, which is what I want you to do, then why do you write paragraphs with not a stitch of sense or evidence or reason to believe what you say?
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

Also, your "blaming god for evil" is quite false. I blame god for nothing. I am only attributing evil to a god, because if an almighty being who was capable of reducing evil existed, it would be evil for him to allow small children to be raped or starve to , despite his ability to stop it.However, that being clearly does not exist from both a philosophical standpoint, a scientific standpoint and the very fact that humans are also creators of art and wonder, without the need for being gods. Evolution, the big bang's evidence and the very fact that nihilism is truth, for you to choose your own path in life all point to the non-existence of a god, along with the utter lies and insanity of organized religion, and the non-evidence of unorganized supernatural beliefs. -Now, you are being childish simply insulting me. Every insult I deliver is always paired with a logical argument as well. I am not so childish to simply scream insults as you have, however I am truly young at heart, for I can still have fun with petty insults, as long as I have something for them to stand upon besides pure anger and venom.You've basically said "You're an idiot, you have to consider my point valid, even though I admit I have no proof and nothing to convince you with, besides telling you that you're narrow minded."As if I wasn't once Christian, with belief greater than or rivaling your own. Not only Christian, but I have read about and even believed in several religions over the course of my life.-Also, don't tell me about "spoon feeding". You're religious, so you know all about being spoon fed from priests or your holy books. I actually had to think for myself to figure out what was logical and how the universe actually was, rather than depending on "wise" words from prophets, soothsayers, shamen and other crackpots.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

You've basically said "You're an idiot, you have to consider my point valid, even though I admit I have no proof and nothing to convince you with, besides telling you that you're narrow minded."Once again you're assuming what and how I go about what I believe in and how I portray myself. My "childish insults" are merely mirror reflective defensive stances on your attacking calling people like me liars and the god I believe in not good enough. That is an insult to me. You threw the first punch, I simply defended myself, Mackindale. Be done with your insults and then see how that fares with you.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

My punch was thrown with logic and evidence and reason. Yours was the anger of a child who was proven wrong but can't accept it.I said "Why doesn't god prevent childrape?" You make some bullshit excuse and say it's man's fault. No fucking shit it's man's fault. Are you stupid or something??? The point is if god was almighty, good or there, he would stop children from being raped. Yes, of course it is man's fault. God doesn't exist.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

You are laughable. You speak of obvious points yet you're obvious clueless of the points you obviously make. The creator is almighty, we cannot touch it, we're obviously having heated discussion about it. Further, god is real, and people who hurt other people are real. What can be said of both? People aren't being raped because god is not almighty, people are being raped because people are selfish and needy. You are not questioning what god can and cannot do, you are question why god would allow such a thing.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

I don't care what god allows or disallows. I don't think it's real. It's mythology to me.I am only trying to incite a meaningful response from you that shows that you can either concede to argument or prove me wrong. You are simply being stubborn and sidestepping every issue I bring up.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

Then laugh.I debate and insult you to have fun. Do you really think I'm yelling at my computer or something?And you say "The creator".Who? Prove that it exists, then continue your explanation. You are clueless, it looks like.

Mackindale, you are simply a lost atheist. You don't even have solid grounds for your own beliefs.

Side: False

Cuaroc, you are probably right about being a lost theist but at least I know where I stand within theism and where I want to go. It's apparent atheism has goals other than what they claim to believe in. This dud Mackindale is being a troll dick wad towards those who believe, that's all.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

Uhhhh. Atheism is the lack of belief in a god.I don't believe in a god, because it is illogical and there is no compelling evidence.Those are the most basic grounds for atheism.You are simply a deluded theist. (see, I can do it too!)
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: False

People do dumb shit because of what they believe, which is religion. Your point that they do dumb shit because they aren't perfect stands too... the reason religion exists is because humans aren't perfect, after all. They are the inventors of religion.It's just a matter of semantics. It's like saying that faulty security systems don't cause people to escape. Well yeah, the people are the ones doing the escaping, but come on, don't get smart and or be difficult over words.
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

People made religion, which in turn caused wars.It's never the "thing's" fault, it always leads back to humans....... "smart" humans......
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

Like many people you fall into the trap of using the word religion when you should have said God - Religion is a man made idea and there are many religions. History is full of religious wars but I grant you they were created by man. God is Love and Peace, its what we have done that screwed up the world!!!
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people
Side: True

Atheits might argue that religion is a tool that was used to justify war. In fact used by people. Were there no religion would there be justifications based on values and morality. If there was no morality no justifications would even be needed. In the end it is a matter of human nature. Religions and states do not cause wars, behind all of that are the people. They also have used these institutions for maintaining peace, but then decided not to.

Both are wrong. Religious BELIEF has caused most wars. People cling onto it for dear life, and when their beliefs are threatened... They get violent.

Religious belief has caused MOST wars? Really where f your facts come from
Debate: True or false. Religion never caused any wars, it was only people

Misunderstandings arose due to disharmony between races and that was what started wars.
