I must say that most of us on WP that 'bash' religions do it because it is nonsensical and flies in the face of understanding. Whilst many wars/conflicts are supposedly religious the truth is often far deeper, however you show a complete lack of historical knowledge if you think that the crusades were not based on religion.
I know what they're based on. My point is that people in the crusades would have murdered regardless of their religion. The crusades were fueled mainly by imperialism, just like Al Qaidas terror is fueled by racism.

What a load of BS. Maybe here on WP you might cop some flack but trust me not believing in god and talking about it in the real world gets me into all kinds of trouble, yet it is fine and dandy for political leaders to state their allegiance to their religion, do you know of any current politicians saying that they are an atheist, if they did they would most likely be accused of being satanist's
Then I find it a bit ironic that the most popular president of all times, "Honest Abe", was an atheist. The United States government has never killed anyone for not being christians, and The United States is a secular nation. On the other hand, people have been killed in the Soviet Union, China, North-Korea, Cambodia and Cuba just because they were religious.

You're the one who's not accepting science. Only 3,5% of the carbon dioxyde is created by humans, which means that the global warming is not man-made. Besides, the global climate has actually began to cool down for the last 2-3 years.
I've got nothing against atheists, and I'm not a muslim. But I still dislike the fanatical atheists, and many of them only see the bad things in the Qu'ran and the Bible--not the good.
