The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

There are no Hindus telling me what my wife may or may not do with her body. The very few Muslims

Yeah but.....

Globally, again, the Krakauer book title "Under the Banner of Heaven" resonates. Most global conflicts had, and have, a 'religious' component.

The Islamic schism is a major impediment to peace from eastern europe to asia to Africa.

The far right hindu's have their share of wingnuts attacking christians and muslims...

It's nuts that in the 20th century a huge nation like India has to deal with shit like this: India’s governing Hindu nationalist party has approved legislation in the country’s most populous state that lays out a prison term of up to 10 years for anyone found guilty of using marriage to force someone to change religion.

All those religohs battling under their own banners of heaven...
