Syria has a secular regime and it's still ****ed. The reason it's ****ed is because it's been torn by civil war for six years, which is actively fuelled by imperialist powers. Hell, leaked documents prove that the US government planned to use the IS as leverage against Assad. Same goes for the various rebel groups, including "moderate" ones (read: Al-Qaeda and aligned groups). Extremist groups are not a product of islam in and by itself. They gain prominence because they're armed and funded by the US, Norway, Britain, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia among others.
This reason. That reason. Every place the religion prevails is ****. I don't need the story for every example. I see what they all have in common.

do you just choose to believe that every muslim, everyone who follows the faith is a terrorist in waiting? Just wondering.
One, I don't believe people choose their beliefs. Two, no, I don't.

I don't think every white supremacist is going to lynch a black person either.

It bugs the crap out of me when folks blame the religion for the *******s who pervert it to promote their insane ideals.

Just so happens that Islamic *******s are the religious fanatics de jour. That along with the fact they have 21st century weapons at their desposal.

Can you imagine what the Klu Klux Klan would have done if they'd had today's arsenal? How about the Spanish Inquisition with chemical weapons?
Dude. Nobody on this board hates Christianity more than I do.

Simply blaming religion is very innacurate. It's not even the primary reason for conflicts in the world, neither international nor domestic.

White surpremacists and muslims can't really be compared, though.

There's over 7 billion people on this orb. That's 7 thousand million.

Perspective. A stack of 7 billion pennies would be 6,607 miles tall. The number of people killed on 9/11 would be stack less than 0.3% of a mile.

Terrorism sucks. War sucks. But neither define the overwhelmingly vast majority of us.

It has one of the highest infant mortality rates in the world. Why is that the fault of their religion? I don't know. But if every where you go smells like **** it's time to wash your ass.
