...Correctly discerning between good and evil is a much harder thing that includes by necessity denying your own selfish impulses ...

Religion provides a short cut. The trouble is this: was your particular religion actually written by God? Eventually you have to depend on your own mind and reason even if that means you are fooling yourself.

I find it impossible to believe that God would want a Buddhist killed.

Here’s a hint: if your religion requires you to hate (much less murder) or enslave everyone who believes differently than you, it wasn’t written by God…and you need a new religion.
