It's just so infinitely sad that there actually are people willing to kill another human being in the name of something completely imaginary and who still call themselves a religion of peace. This kind of thing just does not belong in the 21st century. It's absurd. I can't imagine what the family must be going through.
Not "pay attention Christians" I hate this shit really.
Pay attention HUMANITY, PAY ATTENTION MUSLIMS, JEWS, CHRISTAINS, ATHEISTS, HINDUS, BUDDHISTS ECT ECT ECT.
The words "minority" and "majority" are geographic. The failure to understand this is why both Jews and Muslims and Native Americans and whites and Christians and even atheists miss the point.
The murder of anyone over dissent is a lesson to humanity, not a billboard for one label. Israeli Jews today do not have a grip on what the Holocaust SHOULD MEAN. Muslims kill more Muslims than anyone else. And to say there are not atheists who read this with rage and SHOUT "WE NEED TO END RELIGION NOW" misses the point.
Anytime you murder another human being, when they are not a direct threat in the moment merely because they exist or offend you. Is wrong. Anytime you scapegoat another group you lose sight that our behavior IS NOT in our labels, but in our evolution.
You should attack Christian and Muslim and Jewish and Atheist and even economic views, not as physical wars, but as ideas. Outside that OUR SPECIES needs to take any aggression physically as war on civility, not to be used as a billboard to promote one label. There is no "virtue of the oppressed", meaning humans evolved to know what pain is like, but when we get on top we use our prior pain to ignore that pain is not a patent owned by a label but in our entire species. If we forget we are the same species long term, we go from the oppressed to the oppressor.
