Not to give any excuses to the muslim radicals (it’s called the internet, people! It’s full of basement dwellers who waste their time making lolcats and porn using cartoon characters, WGAFF? Better get used to it)On the other hand, every time a muslim radical blows themselves up, we look at every muslim with suspicion. Do we look at every christian with the same attitude every time some televangelist say that poor countries are poor because they made a pact with the devil or something like that?Both sides use their religion to justify views that are completely different from what the religion’s founder meant. They are using things they should consider sacred to make a political point! To a non-believer, it’s bullsh!t. To someone who really is a follower of those religions, it’s both bullshit and blasphemy.
