OneLess, > What kind of question is that? It's a valid one based on the way you presented that stupid "statistic." By the way, "Nation Master" got that statistic from the WHO. And although they don't say it, it looks like the statistic is murders per 100,000 people. > Some of our thread members would prefer to raise Islam as the primary underlying condition. Do you truly believe that Ten? Yes I do. In fact, I believe some of the causes of poverty and oppression in many Middle Eastern regions are due to some of the more radical Islamic theologies. And it's really hard to dismiss these radicals as leaders of some fringe groups since they hold considerable influence among Middle Easterners. Muslims in the Western world for the most part have escaped this radicalism, but some of it still lingers. Your long-winded responses are typical of politically correct dreamers with their heads in the sand. People can't point out this problem with Islam itself without you guys accusing them of bigotry. But hey, you can point out the hypocrisies and even the crimes committed in the name of Christianity without anyone calling you a "bigot." Tenchusatsu
