#UPol #Trump #Inflation #religion #war
If you think this week is the week that prices at #USA grocery stores will decrease ... I can assure you that THEY DID NOT DECREASE … They actually increased for many items. Overall prices up and some prices increased in price quite a bit.
#Elections have #consequences.
But at least Trump said his religious #crusades in #Africa could begin very soon. What could go wrong when declaring a #ReligiousWar while letting his own people go hungry.
A quotation from Wendell Berry
And now we are stirring up the question whether or not Islam is a warlike religion, ignoring the question, much more urgent for us, whether or not Christianity is a warlike religion. There is no hope in this. Islam, Judaism, Christianity — all have been warlike religions. All have tried to make peace and rid the world of evil by fighting wars. This has not worked. It is never going to work. The failure belongs inescapably to all of these religions insofar as they have been warlike, and to acknowledge this failure is the duty of all of them. It is the duty of all of them to see that it is wrong to destroy the world, or risk destroying it, to get rid of its evil.Wendell Berry (b. 1934) American farmer, educator, poet, conservationist

A quotation from Russell, Bertrand:
«
We are now again in an epoch of wars of religion, but a religion is now called an “ideology.”

@fawfulfan We will not likely avoid the coming #ReligiousWar. Only the intensity, level of death and outcome are in question. The #GOP has adopted a #ChristoFascist ideology that makes the rest of US demons or minions of the Devil. Sadly, this is likely to continue to infect the rest of the world as well.
I've warned everyone in my personal life that religion would lead to humanity's extinction one way or another. And so the threat continues to grow rapidly.
A quotation from Montesquieu, Baron de:
«
I admit that history is filled with religious wars, but let us be careful here, for it is not the multiplicity of religions which has produced these wars, but the spirit of intolerance stirring those who believed themselves to be in a dominant position.
