3. Every time some country becomes dominated by a religion that has always involved its believers in deadly combat

Surprise! That country usually ends up in deadly combat, either with other countries, or else within its own borders, against its own people. How odd, the people most eager to run the place and grab all the wealth tend to be the ones who KNOW that this is what their god wants, and everyone else had better believe it, leave or die. The ones with the money and the power just KNOW that God wants them to have both. God must have the worst IT team in the universe, because only about 150 religious "leaders" around the world seem to get his emails. At least, that's what they tell us, and they HAVE to be right because they get the word right from God. At least, that's what they tell us. They would be making up something as important as THAT would they?
