Joe, so since there are Muslims who commit evil acts, all of Islam is to blame? The problem with Muslims is they take their "bible" literally. And since Christians have done things like the Inquisition and witch hunts I guess Christian thought is evil as well. The Inquisition is ancient history. Do you really think that could happen today. But then since atheist communist totalitarians are responsible for the deaths of many millions then atheist thought is evil as well... What about atheistic capitalism? I guess the only people we can rely on are people who have no thoughts. Lets start a new campaign, thought and belief are dangerous and should never be used, or maybe you just need to get a license first. People who act out violent thoughts and beliefs are dangerous. Do you really want to live in a world where half the population is governed by a superstition that condones and rewards killing you? The rewards are clearly outlined in their holy book. I am stunned by your insight. Will you accept being the first head of the licensing agency? Not interested, but many on this thread appear happy to impose their beliefs on others.

Lets start a new campaign, thought and belief are dangerous and should never be used ROFL... perhaps you've called for the proper leader for that campaign. Except that I think we've seen how dangerous those with a total lack of cerebral activity can be, too. Perhaps we need to appoint a small, dull pebble as world leader henceforth, and do only what it says to us - directly, and not via intermediaries, naturally...
