I hope that the Kenyans go medieval on their asses and none escape. If they're trying to send a "message" to Kenya, then they need to have a much stronger one sent back to them.

Oh, the Muslim thing was only a part of it.

The Quran is pretty clear about one Muslim killing another. If it is by accident then you can talk to the Iman and maybe he can intercede for you, but if you kill one and mean to do it then nothing can get you into Paradise.

Survivors say that people were confronted by the gunmen and told to recite some common Quranic verses; something every Muslim would know. Anyone who hesitated, or made some sort of smart remark like 'Are you crazy' was shot dead. Others that could rattle off the correct verses were told to hit the road.

It was during this Q & A that most of the folks were able to escape.

So yeah, religion played a part in all of this, but mostly to the extent that the killers did not want to mess up their chances of entering Paradise.

Unless the Muslims are not following the Koran, as interpreted by the Wahaabists. Then they need to be killed, too. It's a twofer.

I hate to generalize, but the muslims that were dismissed should've tried to do more for the non-muslims. What, I don't know - but it would certainly bother me if someone stormed a place to kill the non-athiests, and I just happened to be one of the folks spared simply because I'm athiest.

But they are killing more muslims than anyone else. I guess no paradise for them.

You say that as though it were a bad thing. If only we could get people of religion to kill others of the same sad faith, we might actually be having a dose of chemotherapy that kills the cancer. of religion Of course, it time it could come back again but the less religious people of all stripes, the better.

Assuming it exists, are we?

No I didn't say it as it was a bad thing, I said it as a fact of the matter.

Bizarre thing to say. Sort of a hyper-partisan persecution complex. There might be help available for that. And I'm not being sarcastic.

smart ass comments won't make the reality go away, regardless of how clever you think you are. The reality is there. can you deny it?

disappointed: typically, you are much smarter than this.

I'm way more likely to be taken out by a bad driver on the beltway than any attack, mugging, etc.

On a side note, is it just me or does it seem like some of these groups might just be playing the religion card to give a blanket reason for any of their actions?
