Please don't tell me that Christians are members of the good religion and Muslims are bad members of theirs.

When you asked me who does things ike that? I think you got your answer. We are no better or worse than they are. The only difference is we carry a big stick and they carry a little one.
Timothy Mcvey and the Movie shooter and the killer of the Connecticut children didn't kill in the name of God.

I am not particularly religious, but I see mostly kindness in our religious communities and gatherings here and in our culture. At least most Christians strive toward the golden rule..

I am allowed to tell you and to think whatever I want, but mostly I have lived long enough to know that extremism even in attitude is NOT good. Proud to be moderate.
