Says 499 – Xmas truce WWI – Politics and religion

So why are they at war, killing each other? There is no personal grudge or hatred, only the instilled hatred for the other nationality that has a different political ideology. What connected them that day was what they had in common… their Christian beliefs and the fact that it was a special day. After that religious time passed, they went back to expressing their hatred and differences, forgetting their religion, and following their political mandate. The insanity of man, politics and religion. And how brainwashed the public is.

PS: I just realized that while the content of this video is over 100 years old, it’s a good example of how Christians to how how Christians haven’t changed. Using their religious beliefs as a crutch, they pretend to be what they aren’t. On Xmas day, one of the most holy days of the Christian religion, they are all devoutly put aside their differences and act humble, forgiving, kind, and loving as they put on their best Christian face to celebrate the religious belief of birth of their saviour. The hypocrisy of Christians is exposed when as soon as the festivities are over, they take off the “good Christian mask,” and revert to the old mindset, in this case of these soldiers, kill the enemy. Just goes to show you the true value of religion.
