The Problem With the Abrahamic Religions

In this rather controversial video, I discuss the three main problems that I personally have and see within the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam). I talk about why I think they have done damage to people on a social, spiritual, and systemic level. Having said this, I do praise the teachings of Jesus Christ, who I view as a wonderful and healing figure, akin to the Buddha.

Note: I am not criticising people who choose to follow these religions. I am merely criticising the core issues I see with the fundamentalist elements of these religions, and propose how they can potentially be reformed to follow a more spiritual path, rather than a dogmatic one. After all, some of Jesus Christ's core teachings were: love thy neighbour, do good unto others, and turn the other cheek. I think people can take the good parts of these religions and leave the crappy parts in the past.
