I'm not absolving religion of wrongdoings here, since religion has certainly had a bloody past, but I've heard people say things like "religion was the cause of all problems throughout history" and that's simply not true. Secular ideology can be just as dangerous.

Hitler and others used religion as an excuse to comitt their atrocities. Anyone can committ an atrocity and say God made me do it.
