Ever been to eastern Europe and visited the fancy gold plated cathedrals? Notice who is driving the new Mercedes s550 parked in the parking lot, and notice what the church attendees are driving. Charitable my ass.
my brother in hell, if I believed in religion, and my religion says giving some amount to it or someone else gets me express pass to heaven, i’d be donating like crazy too. I’d be donating more if I know I’ve done horrible things and need more “blessing.”
The charity doesn’t negate the bad things religion has done.
You already said it yourself, the majority of the world is religious. The two things aren’t correlated though.
Now google “residential schools” or “the crusades” for example lol
Apparently you didn’t read any of the hundreds of studies mentioned there showing religious people are more charitable.
Yeah to recruit members, it’s just a business.
