YouTube description
When people witness injustice done in the name of God, the temptation is often to blame faith itself.
But what if the deeper problem isn't religion?
Dr. Esau McCaulley challenges the idea that oppression exists because of Christianity, pointing out that even when faith isn't at the center of a culture, people still find ways to dominate, exclude, and harm one another.
Human brokenness doesn't disappear when religion does. It simply finds new tools.
What do you think—does removing religion solve the problem, or does it reveal something deeper about the human condition?
