NG:Religion can no more be pinned as the cause of yesterday's atrocity than could it for the Oklahoma City atrocity.

First, tolerance in religion is a fairly modern development. Second, it is not religion, per se, that is to blame. It has to do more with our brain's plasticity for accepting improbable religious tenets in the face of contrary rational evidence which allows it to be become a willing instrument in the destruction of fellow beings. For example, even the most powerful of instincts, naked survival, is subjugated to the abstract, unsubstantiated promise of an afterlife.
