Non-religious acts of evil do not justify or excuse religious acts of evil. I regard communism as evil, as I do religions. I also agree that communism has many traits seen in religions and can be considered comparable. Quite simply, many religious evils are accepted in society simply because they are religious in nature, such as genital mutilation in Judaism or the systematic abuse of women under Islam.

Strawman argument. The claim that religion cases acts of evil is disproven by non-religious acts of evil.

You are blaming the tools and not the person who wields them.

Perhaps we should consider the good and the bad together. Jewish ritual mutilation serves other purposes. It would take a lot of philosophical thought and discussion to truly have an intelligent opinion on it.

systematic abuse of women under Islam.

For the sake of argument consider the following.. One could easily argue that the precipitous fall of the west started with feminism and suffrage. Muslim countries are shit places to live for everyone. If women's liberation can destroy the west there is no telling what it would do to the middle east.

It's not a strawman argument. Non-religious people do not commit acts on behalf of their non-belief, but if I ask you has any person committed an act of evil on behalf of their god, the answer is obvious. How many suicide bombers believe they are going to paradise for having fulfilled Allah's wishes? How many wars have been fought because one belief is allegedly superior to another?
