(46 posts)that religion in general is not inherently evil, and can be a force for good just as the religious believe.
But your example here isn't the best. See this for example.
On Sept. 11, 1857, in a meadow in southwestern Utah, a militia of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or Mormons, attacked a wagon train of Arkansas families bound for California. After a five-day siege, the militia persuaded the families to surrender under a flag of truce and a pledge of safe passage. Then, in the worst butchery of white pioneers by other white pioneers in the entire colonization of America, approximately 140 men, women and children were slaughtered. Only 17 children under the age of 8 - the age of innocence in the Mormon faith - were spared.

I hate to give the religion haters more ammo, but facts do matter.
We better stick to Quakers and Amish, heh.
