Once again the religious are going to use their belief in a supreme deity to justify hatred...from the beginnings of Christianity, to the Crusades, then the Pogroms against the Jews...to the forced conversions of Native peoples.

Just lay it all at the feet of God, and that's all the justification they need to openly hate, and feel good about themsleves as they do it!!!
