Jaylen Fryberg was brainwashed to believe that if he killed his best friends they would all live happily ever after on the other side. That could be either Christian, Muslim, or a number of other religions. The shooter in Oregon wanted to know the victims religion before he pulled the trigger. After 9/11, lots of Christian young people joined the service so they could kill Muslims, even though it was only 23 radicals responsible. Not the religion itself.
It’s time that people stand against these religions. Most of us want to cruise through life with no problems so we accept what we have been told. (You don’t want to upset grandma.) Let these religions die off with the old people that may have needed them in their time. Let the young people with their knowledge of science, (which really disproves a lot of the nonsense that these religions bring to the table) Guide us to a peaceful world that is based on facts. Not religion.
