    Clergymen clash at Bethlehem birthplace of Jesus


    Palestinian police officers intervene in a fight that erupted between Greek Orthodox and Armenian clergymen during the cleaning of the Church of the Nativity in the West Bank town of Bethlehem, Wednesday, Dec. 28, 2011. The two denominations each control sections of the church and fiercely guard their turf. The violence broke out when the sides accused each other of crossing into each other's territory. Similar fights have taken place in past years.

    Are you saying it's not a real concern?

    It's not the religion that make people stupid. Religion just gives them an excuse to act out their violence.

    True, but not the entire truth.

    What brings them to violence? Their differing versions of God and his instruction.

    Faithlessness, non-comformative thinking that sits abject to one's own stirs resentment. Watch it fester for damn near a millennium and you have the Middle East as it currently stands.

    While this may not be the popular view, I believe that all the loving Christians of this nation and others would burn the atheists/agnostics/Muslims/non-Christians in the court of public opinion given half a chance and opportunity to do so.

    After all, there is only one God and one Word. Any other is blasphemy, the sin of all sins. You couldnt write or conjure a more hateful, intolerant view of the world and its inhabitants than that. Congrats religion, you dis-inclusive rot on humanity.

    Kinda like how Christianity gave McVeigh an excuse to blow up a courthouse, or how Jesus told Andrea Yates to drown her 5 kids to death.
