   That's bullshit.   
      
   The problem comes from within each person that causes suffering, they just   
   use anything at hand as an excuse to do what they want to do. If people   
   really followed Islam, there wouldn't be terrorism. If people really   
   followed Christianity, people wouldn't end up tied to a fence and murdered.   
   The problem isn't in any belief, the problem is a desire to harm coupled   
   with an ability to rationalize any external item into an excuse for it.
