I thought so but after reading the article on the riots going on in Afghanistan because some loser "preacher" in Florida burned the Quruan, It hit me...it's not religion that causes war. Religion is a concept. It's people who pervert elements of that concept to fit their own hatred and greed that create the conflict. They only use religion as a way of legitimizing it.this isn't about 'religion'... it's about politics masquerading as religionThe troubles in Northern Ireland are part religious, part frustrated nationalism, part historic grievance, and part socioeconomic. Sorry to complicate, but there you are. By the way should you ever visit, avoid these types of discussions.I can hear the rustle of Rep King's check book as we speak. I think he should hold a committee to see if Irish Americans have been radicalised enough to support blowing people up. I do think the English should allow Ireland to Unify as I believe most of the English population do. However, the majority of Northern Irish have historically wanted to remain in the United Kingdom. Its very complicated but supporting murderers should be a simple problem to solve, dont do it!!!
