“It would be almost unbelievable, if history did not record the tragic fact that men have gone to war and cut each other’s throats because they could not agree as to what was to become of them after their throats were cut.”     -Walter P. Stacy

How does violence enter the religious equation anyway? Because I’m right and you’re wrong? Bloodshed over ideas? What good is that? Most religions have been the center of war at one time or another. Why is that? Because of my religious ideas I am going to force you to believe as I do since I have superior knowledge and insight to yours? Is that what is being said through the behaviors of many religious sects, past and present?
