School Is in Session: Guy Learns the HARD WAY After Asking X Users to Name a War Not Based on Religion

Sometimes, someone says something on X that's just begging to get ratioed and go viral. Such is the case with one user who -- rather smugly -- asked users to 'name a war that wasn't based on religion.'

3.4 million views and check out that ratio.

Wowza.

In case you were wondering, here's some wars not fought in the name of religion (spoiler alert, there are many), and all the snark he earned:

Atheism is a religion pal.

Yep.

Communism = atheist. Communism is the most deadly movement in world history.

There you go. 😘

Laughed out loud.

Your war against history

— Holz10: Ho Bot Whisperer (@HolzRevivified) April 25, 2024

Ouch. Hahahahahahahaha.

WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Korean War, Iraq war, Ukraine war, Revolutionary war, all of Napoleons wars, all of Rome’s wars… lol

Actually the war of reproductive “rights” against the unborn has killed more than all wars combined by multiples in just the last century.

No lies detected.

That ratio though, lol.

It's beautiful.

Less that 11% of all wars are religious, and most of those are Islamic wars. The overwhelming majority of wars happen for the usual reasons of territory, and resources.

This is going so badly for him. LOL.

The overwhelming vast majority of all wars across all of human history

If he paid attention in high school, he'd know this.

Any war fought by Rome
Any war fought by the Ancient Greeks
Any war fought by the Mongols
100 Years War
Any war fought by Japan
Any war fought in Europe in 18th/19th/20th centuries (incl. World Wars)
