Actually, yeah, that's pretty much true.
Damn. I think this is the first time I've agreed with a Christian on this forum!
In all seriousness, I have a friend who did counter-intelligence for the military in the middle east. One of the rules she noticed is that religious groups get more nasty when they have near complete control of a region. Whenever they're fighting for popularity, they're usually much more open minded.
Truth is, while I see a lot to object to in Islamic countries in the middle east, I've met more than a few Muslims here in America and they seem to be pretty cool people over here. They're certainly less dickish about their religious beliefs than the Christians.
Me Christian? I have not been a christian since 22/04/13. I am most certainly agnostic atheist, at least last I check. Maybe Christianity is like aids and you can catch without knowing?
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
