religion is a culture

2019-04-26 02:20:01 UTC  

To a degree.

2019-04-26 02:20:07 UTC  

To a much higher degree

2019-04-26 02:20:09 UTC  

Religion can influence culture naturally.

2019-04-26 02:20:18 UTC  

But you shouldn't enforce religion via the state.

2019-04-26 02:20:19 UTC  

For example,

2019-04-26 02:20:20 UTC  

Religion plays a huge part in forming one's culture

2019-04-26 02:20:26 UTC  

While our clans were foundationed in our religion,

2019-04-26 02:20:34 UTC  

We did not enforce that religion on people.

2019-04-26 02:20:41 UTC  

As such there were Christians too in our nation.

2019-04-26 02:20:43 UTC  

who says you had to

2019-04-26 02:20:48 UTC  

that's how islam handled it

2019-04-26 02:20:50 UTC  

Christian bear clan members and Pagan bear clan members.

2019-04-26 02:20:54 UTC  

Everyone is Muslim on birth.

2019-04-26 02:21:03 UTC  

but their parents converted them to be jews and christian

2019-04-26 02:21:08 UTC  

That one is messed up in my opinion.

2019-04-26 02:21:13 UTC  

seems based

2019-04-26 02:21:26 UTC  

Beside Islam isn't a bad religion

2019-04-26 02:21:31 UTC  

It's just the clergy that is pretty disgusting

2019-04-26 02:21:39 UTC  

I mean.

2019-04-26 02:21:42 UTC  

Most of the secular muslim leaders got btfo'ed by socialists in the 20th century

2019-04-26 02:21:48 UTC  

I consider all Abrahamic religions bad religions honestly.

2019-04-26 02:21:53 UTC  

The only tolerant muslim country is probably

2019-04-26 02:21:54 UTC  

indonesia?

2019-04-26 02:21:57 UTC  

But nonetheless Islam CAN be tamed like western Christianity.

2019-04-26 02:22:02 UTC  

It's just going to take a while.

2019-04-26 02:22:03 UTC  

Islam WAS tamed

2019-04-26 02:22:03 UTC  

And some work.

2019-04-26 02:22:08 UTC  

Socialism ruined Islam

2019-04-26 02:22:11 UTC  

and the Middle East

2019-04-26 02:22:29 UTC  

Wasn't it the whole interventionism and British French domination?

2019-04-26 02:22:42 UTC  

depends which timeline u r talking about

2019-04-26 02:22:45 UTC  

The Ottoman Empire was pretty in tune with European Empries including even decriminalizing Christianity,

2019-04-26 02:22:48 UTC  

But then it got split up,

2019-04-26 02:22:56 UTC  

The British-French united the Middle Eastern tribes

2019-04-26 02:22:58 UTC  

who only had tribal identity

2019-04-26 02:22:59 UTC  

And Britian and France kinda launched stuff into a lot of conflict again.

2019-04-26 02:23:04 UTC  

so the eternal anglo and frog told them stfu about tribal identity

2019-04-26 02:23:05 UTC  

Errr.

2019-04-26 02:23:07 UTC  

and focus on ur national identity

2019-04-26 02:23:08 UTC  

That sounds good on paper,
