No God in That

February 15, 2006

What does your God have to say about the murder of His children?

Quoting from this site:

The children were killed when a bomb exploded in central Baghdad’s bustling Fadel area near a camera shop which also sold alcohol, police Lt. Ali Mittab said. The target was unclear but religious extremists often attack stories that sell alcohol or DVDs deemed pornographic.

Police said the children were aged from 10 years to 14 and included two sons and a daughter of Jamil Mohammed, a poor vendor who works in a nearby public market.”We are poor people who has nothing to do with politics,” the father sobbed at the local police station. “We only wanted to live a decent life. What is the guilt of my dead children? They were only heading to school. Now I am left with only two children. This is a disaster for my family.”

It’s not only Islam, either.  All religions are targets, perverted by a few to incite hate and violence.  And we call ourselves intelligent life.
