Sword&Spirit attributes Israel’s stunning military victories in ‘48 and ‘73 to God, not to the air force pilots or the strategists or the generals, where one might foolishly try to place the credit. God favours absolutely everyone according to absolutely everyone. Muslim warriors will tell you of the will of Allah that brought the twin towers down in 2001. Claiming God as one’s own is not only probably blasphemous anyway, but is most likely the root cause of much of the world’s fights and sufferings. There is not a war in the world that cannot be attributed in some way or another to the favour of a deity. This FAQ, ladies and gentlemen, is the core reason why religion is so pervasively dangerous. Indeed, Faith is dangerous because it is an effrontery to critical thinking, but the belief in God that favours you is far more dangerous because it is quite simply fundamentalism.
