Zeev, actually the question of "pre-determination" versus "Free Will" as it relates to religion is a very curious and complex question, and is far beyond anything I want to get into. We agree that the evil done here was truly evil and fascist, and not the true act of a religious believer.

As for my ability to shelter my children, I treasure the freedom that I get in the United States, including the freedom to believe in God, and the freedom to raise my children as I see fit. I agree that my ability to shelter my children is extremely limited, and furthermore that as they get older, that ability will gradually fade away until it is gone completely. The world can be an ugly place, and there are bad people people who claim every sort of religious views. Nevertheless I don't believe that anyone who truly believes in god could have done such a thing as was done on September 11th, though they may claim to. I can't begin to express how appalled I was when the Huminist on the radio blamed all the evil in the country on people who believe in God.
