Colonizers always use religion to justify their crimes
Replies
The only difference here being that Jews were fleeing oppression and nobody wanted to take them in as refugees, so maybe not as simple as you make it

Also, the other way around. Good people will do good things. Bad people will do bad things. But for good people to do bad things and believe they're doing good... that takes religion.

They need religion to justify the injustices. It’s not just spiritual, it’s political. Religion has always operated as a political ideology, and that’s the sad part

Politics can only control what people say and do. Religion can control what people *think*.

Without a religion to justify the injustices that would otherwise be considered crimes, the injustice would be so absurdly in your face that nobody would support them…

All in the name of their god. I guess that makes it right

If God isn't the kind and loving but fairly powerless God I see her as, I don't care that I'd be wrong because I refuse to worship something with worse morals than a mortal, fallible, human such as myself… Even if that means burning in hell for an eternity, at least I wasn't worshipping a monster…

The people being colonized had religions, too, but they didn’t use them to justify theft

Sure, religion isn't an inherently bad thing, just like money isn't. But they are both extremely powerful amplifiers for who you already are and what good or evil you can do/convince others to do. My point was that without religion amplifying their evil, it wouldn't have been successful…
