I'm not big on the religion discussion... but I think common sense tells us that no religion has anything on another when it comes to attrocities.... or goodness. Like anything else [WTC disaster included], religion is an independent experience for each individual... any one of them can mean entirely different things depending on who practices.

Hold it...we'll correlate everything to death. Going along the lines discussed, we'll end up asking ourselves which religious phenotype is best for long-term stockholders (g). Causing a stampede into, say, LDS; or onto Calvin's home turf in Geneve...

People tried to use some special traits as a reason for them having acquired wealth. This people trying to feel 'superior'. They are patting their own back.

Protestant work ethics. The hardship of the weather. There are people that even have the face to say they are the chosen by God!

Today, when Hakkas beat the shit of places inhabited by Protestant ethics, when Brazilians beat the ones forged by hard weather and send them -tail in between their legs- to the WTO to seek protection these argument do not fly
