That violence was alive in the Christian doctrine wars for years, LUHE. We have to honor the people who are brave to call enough in the face of death to stand for love and education instead of hate and ignorance.
Desert goatherders is where the books of the Bible and Islam came from. As Bandicoot noted Malala’s father referred to the violent patriarchy that crushes girls and boys. Why pretend one religion was better than the other? ( yes. Islam is late to the game and we have rpg and oil tycoons) There were tender hearts that came from each tradition all mixed together. but the books have both love and hate. We have to feed the love.
Like a high class family that doesn’t (like to) acknowledge that they had murderers, horse thieves and prostitutes for grandparents, western countries derived from primarily Christian antecedents do not acknowledge their own bloody religious imperialism.
If religious violence is at the gates again then review the past fairly. If you could reach back and save from bloody murder the victims of Christian zeal, wouldn’t you?
Law, law law. Strong and fair. Education for all.
I wish Tommy and Malala could meet.
