Peter Theil doesn't seem driven by religion to me... He sees religion as a tool, like all powerful people.

    something something this user thinks israel is the same as judaism and therefore israel is the defacto jewish state and dealing with israel means you are a jew by relation? i'll just assume that's how this antisemite thinks

    Folks that think that way are usually religious themselves and think religion is some kind of spell that makes people good or bad, They probably attribute the good things they do to their religion and the bad things they do to straying from their religion. Sad, simple shit. The exact sort of person Thiel uses.
