Subject: RE: BS: Another View of Religion
Yes, and at the basis of territory, money or politics, the specter of religion is there.

I'm not advocating the abolition of religion, but as far as the impact of religion on war, as the cliche goes these days "I'm just sayin'".

Here's a solution. Keep religion out of nationalism, politics, money and violence.

Is there a Christian nation? A Jewish nation? A Muslim nation? A Buddhist nation?

See any problems with this?

Then there's Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs claiming he's doing "god's will",
and John Boehner's "So be it" translated to "amen".
