13. "religion is more often used to market a war..."

Because people believe it.

"Religiophobic" is a made-up word. The word you are looking for is "skeptical." When people believe irrational things, they will invariably behave irrationally. The dispute in Palestine is one of Jewish Israelis versus Muslim Arabs. To ignore the significance of that is to ignore reality.

And I'm "phobic" of religion because it is fucking scary. Nothing is more horrifying than someone who thinks it is his god-ordered duty to do something horrible.
