Do you think there will be a point where the world stops letting violent aggressors get what they want or is that ingrained into society? (lemmy.world)

I referred to christianity from your comment and bible because my knowledge about islam is way less than about christianity. I had read Quran but i was not impressed at all, though it was more consistent than bible at least. Though i seem to remember there was nearly 15 centuries of various people writing interpretations of it, of which some was even enforced.

Also we seem to shift the topic, the foundation of society is not any text or another, it's the mode of production. And the shifting of holy texts and religious canons excellently illustrates that they are not any rock but the cover (base and superstructure, remember), as you mentioned yourself with how the bible was used.
