Right yes, because Nazi Germany was so secular, making a God out of Hitler. Same for Communist Russia with Stalin. The USA is not a secular country in practice either, however much it loves to claim it is, neither is The UK technically. The only truly secular country involved in The World Wars was France, and France only became involved in either because it was pretty much dragged in. The World Wars were not "secular" wars, they were wars brought about by religious-like nationalism.
And my point still stands that where there is religious conflict (I never said all wars, I said "holy wars"), then 99 times out of 100 you can expect at least one, and often more than one, of the Abrahamic Messianic religions to be at the centre of it. If you hear something in the news about a person being killed for offending religious sensibilities, we know which religion the butthurt killer belonged to before they even say it. So you can get off your moral high-horse because that particular religion is yours. If you gave as much of a shit about innocent people getting squashed by your religion as you appear to do about the atomic bomb, you could stop fundamentalism dead in it's tracks. Instead you're arguing with me about my alleged "double standards", laughable.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
