We can all google but if your intention is simply to increase your post count, maybe we really do need the BUMP thread reopened for those that need it most.

I find it very interesting that specifically at this time, all sorts of posts are popping up about religions other than Islam, especially Christianity, making assertions of their enormous potential endangerment to mankind. Just look at Jumpy's thread on doomsdayers.

I smell a straw man, or issue, to be more precise. Ask yourself why. Savvy? :hmm:

I am actually not even sure what your point is, then? Religion rears it's head because some take the name of their religion as a reason to commit atrocities towards infidels. That should force everone to at least question why. And you inevitably end up asking yourself: Has this something to do with religion? Are the radicals that commit terrorist attacks somewhat different from us? Or are we alike? If we are different, is there a purpose to emulate their behaviour, such as making our own religious founded camps of holy warriors? If we are alike, why do we then fight, and more to the point, why are we better if we share the same ideas?

Attackers of WTC where clearly after the spectacle of it. Take down some of the infidels and perhaps go to Paradise where the promised virgins awaits you. Do you suggest we emulate that? Send someone in airplanes to take down a few skyscrapers of a major city at the Persian Gulf?
