Very interesting. It just goes to show that the people in power only use religion for their own self gains and purposes but when it comes down to it...... money and power are all they care about.
Whether it is the Saudi royals, Falwell, Roberstson, our great "Christian" president, the Isreali government, the Iranian Ayatollah, the Pope.... whomever.... it is sad they use what is sacred to their people to push their own agendas.
If not for those in power perhaps ALL RELIGIONS would actually get along and respect each other.
However, which ever God or higher power truly exists.... I am sure these people get punished....... Karma's a fucking bitch when people abuse what power they have been given in life.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
