My only point was that blaming this furor on all religion is a facetious argument. I know exactly what atheism is and I do not need your pretty little links to educate myself. Having a major in 20th century history I can tell you that the essentially 'humanist' creed of communism killed many more people than religions ever have. Practising of religion was OUTLAWED.

The problem here is not religion, it is simply human nature. When lead by any 'creed' some people will take it to it's extremes. In muslim's case, that timing is now and by a surprisingly high percentage of their adherants and it is every bit as dangerous as the communist threat was. (if you can remember that far back).
That's what I've been trying to point out to Cheese for about 5 pages of this thread. But he'll always come back claiming that your argument is inferior to his because he can provide more links or something like that. Bringing up a dozen articles from atheist.org to enforce a point is perhaps no better than some guy bringing up articles from natvan.com. Eerie how all American bias propaganda websites all look pretty much the same.

But hey, all in good fun.
