How does one protect from religious fanatics ? This is the million dollar question to me. We have them in this Country too....

To me it is like a finger in the hole of a break in a humungus damn. It cannot stem the tide of those who BELIEVE whatever the BELIEF... And it spreads.....

For every fanatic slain another rises up to take his place.

"I believe the average citizen of the world desires freedom and stability."

I agree.

"If the fledging new country is protected from religious fanatics I think they will find their way."

What if the Democracy we promised to bring to them allows 'religious fanatics' a majority rule?

What then?
