That wouldn’t work though. In Indian they know a certain river is filled with toxic waste, they swim in it because it’s holy. I bet that people would still pilgrimage there, just maybe an end of like thing.

Neutron bomb between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem was my dumb teenage solution to the problem. I still hate the idea but it’s less dumb.

That’s different, you aren’t guaranteed to die wading through the Ganges. Even with a hazmat suit your time in the irradiation zone is limited before you risk a horrifying, painful and slow death.

You aren’t guaranteed to die wading through toxic waste? That’s a crazy take but do you boo…

I truely hope english isn’t your primary language. Because if it is you don’t understand the word toxic. Lethal, deadly, fatal, these words mean something WILL kill you. Toxic CAN kill you in some contexts but really just means “is bad for human health”. You seem to think the Ganges and Elephant’s foot are of equal levels of danger and that’s laughable.

A neutron bomb wouldnt destroy any of the holy sites so another group of nutters would just move in after and claim it was their god that blah blah blah…

Neutron bombs remain unused. They’re for land denial. They irradiate an area for about 10,000 years.

A neutron bomb is quite the shrewd choice from a teenager.
But the better solution is to treat religion as an endemic mental illness and find a cure.

The cure is about 5,000 Luigis. You just need to decapitate the hydra faster than it’s children can grow to 18 and access their trust fund.

I’m an antirealist. You won’t find any evidence for the existence of reality, because using your senses to validate your senses is a fallacy. And while cogito ergo sum is valid, cogito ergo mundus is flawed. So the only remaining reason to believe in an external world beyond the senses is religious tradition. Realism is a religion.
