A religion cannot exist without followers. I consider a group entity both its ideology and its people. If the people in the group behave badly, then it’s going to reflect badly on the group.

Germany is responsible for the holocaust. Does that mean that German culture is inherently anti-Semitic? Of course not. But history still happened and when such large scale tragedy happen responsibility needs to be taken.

When I say Christianity needs to answer for its crimes I’m talking about Christianity as a political and cultural entity. The kind of Christianity that people follow and has impact on world history.

Humans fuck things up always. H rust does not deserve the church he started. the buddha doesn’t deserve the Burmese generals. Philosophical teachings can be pure and worth following
