Joe...you are of course correct, but as long as religion is USED by the greedy to incite evil in others, and to fuel and defend their evil behavior, it is difficult to separate the issues.
I have said many times that as long as people are TOLD, with little attempt to tell them otherwise, that certain types of murder gets them directly into Paradise, this will keep happening. Now, it seems, even moderate Muslims are afraid to say otherwise.
   Does no one remember that it was not that long ago that Christian 'differences of opinion' were settled in similar ways?
