My God; There sure is a lot of killing at this post. I think part of the trouble with the extreme muslim fundamentalist is that the leaders encourage such actions and then reward the family members after their sons or daughters blow themselves up. I saw a program on PBS where a mother was encouraging her son to do just that to gain respect in the community and financial support by the extremist. I remember during the Vietnam war Buddhist monks would set themselves ablaze in protest of the Catholic Diem regime. They were far more effective in accomplishing their mission. You felt sorry for the monks, not hatred as so many do towards the muslim murderers. In other words if you want to commit suicide go ahead, though I wouldn't myself recommend it. But none of this has anything to do with God other than an excuse. Obviously both acts were highly political the real culprit. Peace Joy and Love to All, Pat |
