Episode notes
Religion has historically energized hostility in conflicts such as the Crusades, Northern Ireland, and Gaza-Israel issue, with people going to battle under religious symbols like the cross. However, the argument that religion is uniquely violent is not backed by evidence; the 20th century, marked by secularism, was also the most violent in history. While Hitler associated with Christianity for political motives and publicly addressed religiosity, historians argue that he was not religious privately. Hitler's usage of religion in rhetoric does not define Nazism as a religious ideology.
