The un educated are lead by war mongering "religous leaders" preaching about a better way" through intollerance and war. How evil and godless the other side is. How they have no morals.. how they hate, and revile thier very way of life.. how they will come and kill off thier families if but given the chance.. so thier followers belive this..
Oddly enough, it seems to me that your post qualifies as "un educated... preaching... intollerance... hate". But please don't take that as an accusation. In fairness, I think we should apply the same rule to everybody:
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. (Hanlon's Razor)

Well I have seen and heard it from in the pulpits of American Evangelical Churches.. and also seen it from what the Mullahs are teaching over there in thier sister schools and churchs that function with just as much fundamentalism.( that started mostly after the 1979 Iranian revolution. ) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_revolution
Any time you have 2 very different factions they tend to demonize each other. It is easier to hate, and kill people you do not see as worthy human beings.
Remember how Americans felt about the Russians in the Cold War? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rk78eCIx4E and vice versa.... The Japanese after Pearl Harbor.... ( look at the rampant hatred, cartoons, jokes, profiling...)
again... those who do not know thier history are doomed to repeat it.
The war mongers teach us bigotry and hatred so we will march to thier tune. It has happened for years. Those who have the eyes to see have always been called Un-patriotic, been cast out... been reviled.
It has to stop some where... we have to eventualy make a stand and say enough.
Gwyn,
The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.
BTW thanks to the current policies of the admin.... we are now back into a Cold War. Just in case you are playing along at home.
