It is not about "Bad Things" per se being talked about here Keith It is the uses of religion to carry out "bad things" that is under discussion. Religion, through its misuse by the church, is historically the main cause of mass bloodshed and terror recorded and that is an ongoing fact The inquisitions started in the 12th century; the last execution was carried out in Spain in 1826 Some rack record of bloodshed and terror It is the misuses of religion that is under discussion, not general "bad things" No other organisation was in a position to create terror under the threat of "eternal damnation" Jim Carroll
