What is your controversial take (history/politics)??

It's no coincidence that the most successful Muslim nations are also the most secular ones

Anyone arguing against this is brain dead. Religion has no place in politics

Modern religions are terrible. We need a new religion that fits today's society.

Agreed but I'd single out Islam here rather than group it in with the other religions. See, christianity basically evolved along with western society so by default it's the most compatible. While virtually all islamic teachings contradict with every facet of modern life

That's a good point. I might even place Buddhism as being the single best religion because its more progressive for today's society and more lenient. But even then, I still wouldn't push any religion on others and believe it has no place in today's society in terms of creating laws.

Ultimately , I respect all beliefs. I just don't want it to have any involvement with politics
