Too damn easy to commit atrocities when you think that God is on your side. Doesn't matter whether you pray to YHWH, Jehovah, or Allah. Or Marx, Lenin, or Mao. Seems like all ideologies have a peculiar version of "Women and children first."
Days like this, a nice planet-busting comet sounds like a good idea. One like the Cosmic Spirit laid on the dinosaurs. Wonder what _they_ did wrong.
