Btw, further to the OT (ahihi):
IMHO, to blame religion for society's ills is like blaming the gun when a man is killed.
The gun didn't kill the man. The man killed the man.
There is no mention of Crusading in the Bible. The Pope (who is just a man) ordered the Crusade.
AFAIK about jihad, it does not translate precisely to 'Holy War.' Again, that is a man's order. Jihad is 'to struggle for faith.'
In Chinese, there is a saying... 'Chap Ching', literally 10,000... but man has given it another meaning...
