I've never shied away from the reality of what some religious nutbags do. I call it for what it is as well as you. I only ask that not everyone who calls them self a believer or religious person not by default have their views assumed because of the beliefs/actions of the fringe. Do you also believe all people who identify as Muslim are terrorists and view everyone in America as infidels? My entire point is you were taking the actions/views of some and applying the entire connotation to anyone who self describes as "religious".
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
