I'm afraid they ALL constantly are -
(any) Religion, each one a selfproclaimed "one & only Truth", has that in it's DNA.
It's all "per definition", so to speak.

That said: I admire, love & trust people who try to get through life together with ALL fallow human beings in ANY faithful, trustful, loving, and moraly strong kind of way.
THAT will never die - and should never be confused with institutionalised religious fanatism.

Yes, it's Eagles of Death Metal - a great rock and roll band that does not play death metal. They are HUGE fans of The Rolling Stones. All guitars are tuned in open G and they play Brown Sugar at almost every gig. Originally I planned to attend this very gig. I can't even think how horrible it must have been to be inside the venue. You're enjoying a great evening of fine music, then suddenly you're attacked by cowards armed with guns. It's sick, sad and tragic.

Bad title. Praying for everyone in Paris.

We can hope that no more people get hurt but praying won't achieve anything,it is religion that is a major factor in the cause of these horrific and deluded acts.

Here we go again, it's everyone who's religious at fault.

That is a long was from saying that everyone that is religious is at fault, even though every religion has or had had in history fanatics who take it too seriously to the point of wantonly killng nonbelievers.

That is the difference between religion and ideology which most have progressed beyond.

No you are wrong again. His original point -- that it is the very concept of religion, the very idea that one group knows what or who god is or what is the sole path to salvation that is at fault -- is evidently correct. ALL religions have that as their basis and all have used it as an excuse for mass murder.

Similar attacks killing many took place in Beirut two days ago and it is hardly in the news

jpasc95,

Thank you for checking in with us. So sorry about the shootings in Paris, what a sad time for us all.

according to the French paper 'Le point", the band flew back to California this morning.

My thoughts goes to everyone French and, of course, to the victims and their relatives. Of course this event will, and must, lead to political and military sanctions.
But I will get back to that in due time. I don't want to distract from the work of grief.

Terrorism is about terror of course but it's also about hatred. They hate us and we hate them. Or do we? One of the awful things about terrorism is that it makes good people behave badly.

If a radical Christian sect kills people we don't hate all Christians. If the killers tonight are all men do we hate all men? Or if they have brown skins do we hate everybody with brown skins?

Let's hate the refugees. Yes I've no doubt that some terrorists sneak in but most are just fleeing the sort of terror we've seen tonight.

Let's hate all Muslims. Even the majority, over a billion of them, who don't want to kill people. Even our friends.

If terrorism makes us harden our hearts so much that we hate indiscriminately then not only will we have a lot more enemies then the terrorists have won.

Sorry did not work

I thought they closed the borders?

From NYC to Paris:

i was talking this morning with a Ukranian friend this morning about how sad this situation is and I told her I had an appointment with my doctor at 8 o'clock and that I was afraid about going out, but not afraid of dying or being killed or whatever, i was afraid of crossing people with heavy hearts and without hope, I was afraid of seeing my neighbours and friends feeling beaten, feeling lost.

This assasins will not beat us, we will go on and continue to love our city even more, we will take care of each other and we will teach this idiots what tolerance and respect means, respect for life and respect for thoughts.

There is always a silver lining.

Peace and Love
