(November 3, 2014 at 7:05 pm)Parkers Tan Wrote: If moderation and religion don't play well together, can you explain why some quite religious countries have low levels of religious violence?

What are some of these countries?

If you're thinking of "moderate Islamic" countries, I have good reason to think things are not as harmonious as the outside world thinks. Hillary Clinton once praised Indonesia as an example of a country where Islam and democracy mix effectively. I've visited that country on a few occasions. Christians there are terrified of Muslims and with good reason. You have to watch what you say in public and there's always the threat of either violent individuals or the law turning against them.
