But now you are not being consistent. You talked about atheists not flying planes into a building, but then when confronted with something bad an atheist did, you excuse atheism. How can you logically have it both ways? ``Bad things religious people do are the fault of religion, bad things atheists do are the fault of something else.''

No, I did not say the bad things religious people do are the fault of "religion" (although in the case of Islam, since it is a "totaletarian ideology" it does cause its adherents to do bad things). If you go back and read my posts I quite carefully said, it is ideology, not religion (or lack of it). They are usually not the same thing, but sometimes are.
