Oh. Then maybe I missed all of the abortion centre bombings, non-kosher restaurant bombings, and murders of Saturday bus drivers, and God Hates Jewish f*gs signs in Kiryas Yoel, Williamsburg, Bnei Brak, Mea Shearim 1930s Eastern Europe, Gush Etzion, et al.
Touché.
Or maybe - just maybe - dogmatic adherence to biblical passages which are convenient to a held idea isn't a function of religious teaching but more a disposition to psychological problems. After all, if a guy hates "f*gs" why isn't he also loving his neighbour or sacrificing goats? Saying the acts and ideas of a religious crazy person (regardless of their professed motivation) as a result of a religious upbringing is the same logic that says all those school shootings in the US are because they weren't religious enough; they didn't follow Commandment #7!
