Elon is correct in that the most severe risk to humans is the decline in birth rate. However, he failed to notice that the only group that is most effective in solving this problem are the Talibans. Precisely the religious extremist groups that are a threat to humanity.
Taliban's method may be cruel, but very pragmatic and effective. Turn women into baby factories. Taliban is not labelled as terrorists by the media, only some government agencies. The media called Taliban religious extremists. It is ridiculos to label governments as terrorists as Taliban is, but behaviourwise, Taliban is less a terrorist compared to Israel and Russia, in killing innocent civilians in far larger numbers.
Another group that every agency labelled as religious extremists are the IS, despite it managing to form a government.Any media calling IS, terrorists? Despite it committing terrorist activities.
Blaming religious extremisms is like blaming Christianity to the Nazis. Despite missing any text on mass murder, Nazis and a few Christian based religious groups had interpreted as though mass murder is ordained, many of them on the pretext of fulfilling the prophesy of Armageddon. Ridiculous but factual.
To say that Islam has texts that encourage its followers to commit terrorist acts is absurd. Islam is the only religion that specifically forbid terrorism. The quran forbids the waging of small wars. Does not that sound similar to terrorism?
Islam is also the only religion that predicts this manipulation of facts. Dajjal or anti-christ in Christianity. In Islam dajjal is a creature that tell lies and convince its followers that they are offered heaven, when in reality, hell. Does it not sound familiar? Intelligent and good people, brainwashed by Hitler and now Putin.
The danger is not that good people are led astray by religious extremisms, but intelligent people led astray by any form of extremisms, all of which are actually forms of religions, not just the established religions such as Islam, Judaism, Christianity or Hinduism. Communism, Capitalism, Republicans, Democrats, are all religious beliefs that can become extremes.
