I was addressing the OP.

Still, the book was pretty damned interesting, as it explored some things about how it doesn't seem to matter what religion is involved, there are always people who are going to be crazy extremists. I find the subject fascinating.


People don't necessarily require religion to be crazy extremists though.

Apparently the blood atonement thing still goes on in Korea.

Really? With members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? I'll have to see some proof of that before I believe it.

The OP is just displaying more ignorance of what and whom he's attacking.


Actually, I was going for a larger point. There are several regular posters who do the same thing with Moslems that the OP was doing on this thread. I have little patience with people outside a group who set themselves up as experts on what members of a group should believe because of how they (the critic) interpret a text.

To say the OP is ignorant is being far too generous. For a clue to what is actually going on with this OP, read his thread 'Alienation' which was started within minutes of this thread. I happened to be online when both threads started.
