“I find it mysterious that some people resort to violence over differences in their religious beliefs, like this thread talked about.”


The “mystery” has been answered by several different posters, including you. After all, you didn’t say “Oh, me neither” to my reply to you. You said “really,” as if it was surprising that I didn’t know what you know. If you’re consistent in your thinking, it would be the former “me neither” that would be the only logical position you can hold.

You write “like this thread talked about,” which sounds to me like you’re claiming that MY statement is on a different topic than your oft repeated question.

Why is that?

Why is the motivation for why a man kills for money, booze, women, power, political ideology, etc, different from the man who kills for RELIGION?

Because one is killing for something tangible, something that can be used. Killing because I believe something different about God than someone else, doesn’t make sense. What does one get from it?
