"Bait?" Thing is that racism and hate come together naturally with conspiracy theories/ religious, because that is the way it's adherents explain why there is evidence they are wrong and why majority of the people in the world doesn't adhere to their claims.
As well as the idea of a "golden age" in the distant past when everybody believed what they preach.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
