Please enlighten us to the harshest tyrannies not being related to religions.
A Dose of Common Knowledge, spreading the ever common sense.
Religions known to many as "governments" deeply entwined in actual religion, which has never really escaped the influence of religion.
The people who trail off your comment with "Human nature is the problem because we have the capacity to do evil (huh.. do you even realize what sentiment you are spreading and the insanity of your thinking?!) " and the other user says: "Yeah, you're right, human nature is the problem, people cannot even believe what behaviors human nature can excuse". Epic fail? Or just a dose of reality? all 3 of you share the same sentiments that plagued every ruler EVER: they are the problem, they cannot help themselves, I am the solution.
No Religion Here, Ever

Just saying.
So fascism and bolshevism are "godless religions"? What the hell does that even mean? And were does it put the balme? Doesn't it mean that religious extremesim is just like any extrismism? And if so then what's your point?
So back to my original reply indeed. Did I say that human nature is the problem?
When you say "A is the cause of B", that implies that if we want to stop B, we have to stop A.
I say, "C is a much more significant cause of B", to which you reply, "no, it's C+A that causes B".
I say, "C+A is a subset of C and all C causes B. Also, C+A is just a subset of A. Ergo we should eliminate all of C, not all A"
Is that clear?
