Yep.
And there is plenty of crazy to go around in Jewville, too.
Religion is a scourge in many ways.
What a truly stupid comment.....but that appears to be your specialty.
The Judeo-Christian religion is, largely, responsible for Western Civilization.
Professor Jason Hill has an interesting view of slavery as due to a lack of that religion.
.Professor Hill writes:
“We must remember that the beginning of African chattel slavery preceded all ideas of race as biological typology and the racism distinctly associated with them. These did not appear in Western culture before the eighteenth century.
In the nineteenth century, German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel noted in his magisterial work,
Lectures on the Philosophy of World History, that
slavery itself was a necessary stage in historical development
made possible by the African indigenes themselves. He notes that, lacking any conception of justice or right, the African evinces a “complete contempt for man and a respect for life itself.”
He goes on to say that “slavery is the basic legal relationship in Africa,” a place where the distinction between master and slave is completely endemic and accepted as natural. For Hegel,
in a culture where human life has little or no value, the enslavement of Africans y Europeans is at least partially necessary on the premise that it can educate the African to have consciousness of his freedom.”

Genesis, of course, offers a very different view of humanity.
