1. Thousands in Sudan call for teacher's execution for Teddy bear
2. Papal encyclical says atheism to blame for injustices, cruelty.
Does anyone else see the inconsistency and the irony? It's religious extremism that causes problems in the modern world -- not atheism.

Sharon M.: Wouldn't make the top 20 you say? Surely you jest.

Actually, history shows us that most violence and misery comes from imperialism and nationalism. While there are crimes committed in the name of religion, if you took all the violence that ever happened and listed it according to cause, religious violence wouldn't even make the top twenty.

I am a Christian and I have to agree with you.
It is religious extremists that are causing all the problems in the world today. From the TV evangelists with their feel good ministry and muslim extremists who are out right vicious.
Religion is a mess right now.

Religious extremism has caused problems throughout history. Christians are as guilt of this as any other religion. I say, let people alone to worship as they wish.

Hmm I would have to agree. But, ponder this: people who go through life without faith and hope or some belief are mindless empty individuals only living for themselves and not fearing a consequence.
