[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m atheist but there is really no question that Christianity creates the most peaceful, egalitarian, and prosperous societies.

I don’t care to be a fourth wife or burn to death atop my husband’s funeral pyre.

I question this. People used to argue that whiteness created these “best” societies and that other races were inferior and therefore had inferior societies. That’s obviously wrong, and I don’t think it’s Christianity either.

First, the west is prosperous because we exploited the rest of the world. Also, the west is definitely not peaceful. We just finished two 20 year wars! Egalitarian? We committed a genocide against Native Americans and had slavery for how many hundreds of years? [/quote]

Sigh. Please educate yourself on world history beyond the past 300 years. And then we can talk about your opinions.

All of human history is simply groups of people violently attacking, exploiting, and enslaving others.  What do you think Native American culture looked like before they were conquered by Europeans: Hint - it was violent and featured rituals such as mass child sacrifice.

Slavery has always existed and today more people globally are slaves than ever before in human history. Slavery was only abolished at large scale across cultures when the white Christian men who held much of the global power decided to abolish it.
