What an extraordinary way of starting a post? Who are these bigots Keith? Any chance of providing a link to where they post? Religious bigotry is usually by religious bigots if memory serves me well.

On the subject of church leaders cashing in on terror to make them look important, I notice the following;

Religious leaders inspire terrorists to do their wicked deeds by saying they will be martyrs. Interestingly, both the Pope and the Archbishop of Canterbury are calling the victims of religious terrorists martyrs, which is no better than the other religious leaders inspiring terrorists.

Nobody died for their religion in any of the recent attacks. They died for the religion of the criminals who killed them. To call them Christian martyrs is as obscene as using their relatives and friends grief as an advert for silencing critics, or persecution as they wrongly and disturbingly call comment from rational people.
