I find it quite strange - and really sick - that some people who claim to be highly educated, wise, cultured, religious, spiritual and helpful to others, jump to attack another religion at the slightest provocation. They do not just condemn the followers of that religion for their misdeeds (which is what any sensible person should/would do), they actually condemn the religion itself for the simple reason that they don't follow that religion. And they do it with complete impunity, without for a moment thinking that it is not the religion that may be bad, it is its misinterpretation by the people who turn evil and commit heinous acts.
Tolerance, compassion, benevolence, humanity - qualities which should manifest themselves much more in such "spiritual" people - seem to have not touched them at all. What's more, they don't have an iota of shame in goading their own religious brethren to put the other faith's followers in their proper place and propagating violence against the followers of the religion that they so disagree with. So much for their wisdom & spirituality!
While I am among the first to condemn the misdeeds of any religion (including the one I follow), I find such partisan & parochial behaviour from the so-called-religious-minded completely obnoxious. I hope and pray that they rise above such intolerance by showing some forbearance and give religious solidarity (I did not say secularism) a real chance.
