Why only religion, why not other forms of manipulation?

It’s the one that irritates me the most and manipulates hundreds and thousands of people in killing in its name or being judgemental in its name. I don’t have any objection to people having a belief in God, it’s comforting for many but object when it is used to control others.
However, any form on manipulation can go in too


It can also manipulate people into doing good things, saving people, caring for their fellow human etc.

Yes but you do not need to be religious to do that


Some people do need religion to do that. Also, many turn to religion to help them get through tough times.

Well we'll have to put governments down the chute too as they have manipulated and killed hundreds of billions of people. Take a look at the wars of the 20th century.

Many of us would quite happily put politicians in room 101 as well. :mrgreen:

... starting with the doomsday cult leader, aka Donald J Trump.

Just stuff him all the way down that chute, never to be seen (or heard!) again.

Just saw him do a 'presser' before heading off to grace Paris with his majestic presence. Rambling on about now memorable the planned commemoration ceremonies will be. Nothing wrong with mouthing the right words like that, of course.....right up to when he said (wtte of) "many countries have elected to participate - especially when they learned the USA will be taking part"

He can't even stop himself from making Armistice 100 all about him! :roll:

Sometimes you feel you should be able to un-elect a president in the USA. Call it the negative voting system.

Just to point out, pretzels aren't Jewish.

They were first made by monks.

Are you confusing them with bagels?
