Of which evil do you refer? The type that is clearly fiction and a scapegoat for personal responsibility or the type that is Charles Manson?

Bush the Dumber said that too.  Fuck both of them.

It is certainly a dumb idea to go crusading around in the Middle East.

Don't forget the Christian jihad commandment, Matthew 28:19 (CEV) = "Go to the people of all nations and make them my disciples. Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,"

The commandment is to make people comply, whether they want to or not, and to induct them into the cult with some hocus pocus incantation and make them believers.

Not all religions are evangelical but all religions are indeed evil.

Yes, it certainly can be. The Crusades and ISIS and 9/11 is living proof of that. In fact, 99% of the wars were fought over either religion or resources. Religion can brainwash you, and turn you into someone who won't listen to reason. The thing I hate most about religion is that it teaches you to only accept one side of the argument as the true answer, and to ignore everything else. That to me is literally brainwash in the name of an imaginary figure.

And who's doing the brainwashing? Religion or the ones imposing it? Where did religion arise from? No, religion in and of itself is not evil.

Religion programs people to perform cruel actions as acts of moral good.
