I suspect that to those perpetrating all these activities their actions seem perfectly rational. It is to <i>us</i> that they appear irrational. To me they are crazy, to them I&#x27;m crazy. But once we start down that road it&#x27;s just a small step to demonization and saying &#x27;bomb them all&#x27; and that&#x27;s really not a solution that has my vote. So rather than resorting to those methods and getting everybody (including Christianity) up to the standard required for scientific rigor in their thinking we&#x27;re going to have to walk a different path. Religion is - for better or worse - most likely here to stay and any solution that includes abolishment of religion, no matter how welcome that would be to me personally if it happened - is probably going to achieve the opposite of its stated goal.
