Like all of them, really. I dream of a day when all people realize neither of those bullshitty made up stories even make sense and will stop believing in all of religion.

People like religion because it brings community. It allows people to create a shared knowledge which people have a way to connect and understand how people want to be treated. You honestly could do this with anything. You largely see it in the Linux community now though. Linux is religious like that.

Just like any religion. This has nothing to do with Islam. It has everything to do with extremist zealots who exist in every religion. Even Linux.

This isn't about religion. Please read the article before making ignorant comments.

Yeah mate countries allowing men to murder women with fuck all consequences as long as it was an "honour killing" has totally got nothing to do with religion - just like how the Americans banning abortion is purely to protect babies and definitely wasn't motivated by religion!
