The Holocaust Is To Religion What The Berlin Wall Was To Communism

Occasionally during the life of an ideology or grouping of ideas something happens which is so at odds with the predictions or spirit of that ideology that it's fundamental premises must be challenged and discarded.Now what has happened in the objective world is a manifistation of it's internal and perhaps unrecognized contradictions or incompleteness in the theoretical world.The Iron Curtain across Europe was a gross example for all to see of the internal incompleteness and incorrectness of Marxism.Never before in history had such a decrepit ideology been forced on a population by the so called intellectuals that a wall had to be built to keep the population in.However that never stopped "theoreticians" from expounding the socialist line.Nonetheless a thousand miles of barbed wire was there for all to see.This was a result totally at odds with theory and a moments thought should tell any thinking person that the whole edifice was built on sand .Likewise today sixty years on another event happened which is at least equally at odds with the religious viewpoint as the Iron Curtain was to economics and sociology.That event was the holocaust which was as far removed from religious prediction as the failure of central planning was to socialist economics. All the basis for religion for the last two thousand years will have to be swept away and here is why and paradoxically it depends on the brilliance of the many religious scholars.Religious texts have been studied for thousands of years by uncounted many brilliant people non of whom predicted the holocaust.It is fair to say with all those people studying religion someone should have predicted probably the most enormous moral calamity in history if it were possible to do so and if they could'nt predict that then what good are all their interpretations.That is what religion claims to be able to do that is give reasons for what happens and by implication predictions.Saying it is God's will is asinine and insulting in the extreme and an intellectual cop out which explains nothing.It would be as if no one had discovered the pythygorean theorem.Highly unlikely and if no one had discovered that theorem by now then the axioms of geometry would be useless.Likewise since no one predicted the holocaust then the axioms of religion are useless and the world is very different from what religion has taught.
