The Bible and Koran are the true weapons of mass destruction.

Don't blame the books. Blame the people abusing the books.

The blame lies with the faithful who are willing to suspend rational
thought and be lead to irrational acts as puppets of those
disenfranchised despots terrified of their loss of power in a
globalized world. As long as there are ready supplies of illiterate,
hungry, desperate people, there will be those eager to exploit them as
tools to operate the weapons greedy dealers supply against humanity in
the vaine hope of gaining influence in their destaines.

Until the world's people truly embrace the principle of "turn the
other cheak", the destablizing policy of "an eye for an eye" will
inexorably tend toward escalation of hostility among men.

Those are the same people who are a problem everywhere, regardless of the
exact method of leading. We have plenty of non-religious people in the US
who share this same sort of blame.

Hate to say it, but abuse of religion is just as alive and well here in the
US as it is anywhere else. Though, perhaps your description is just as apt
here as well.

In other words, "the people abusing the books". I'm pretty sure that's what
I wrote in the first place.

It is these exploiters who are the problem, not the books.

Until the world's people truly embrace the principle of "turn the
other cheak", the destablizing policy of "an eye for an eye" will
inexorably tend toward escalation of hostility among men.

"An eye for an eye", while perhaps unenlightened, would not be as bad as the
situation that exists today.
