interesting commentary, but it doesn't take into account that such sentiment doesn't come from stupidty, it flows from the heartfelt belief that one's religion is the fountainhead of morality. That such morality is objective, it's handed down from on high, outside the realm of humanity, given atop a mountain and carved in stone, it is after all is said and done the correct morality. To such a person, if another possesses a different moral code then such person's "morals" are absent. they are defunct, perverted, evil.
