Personally, because of one key teaching, "Love your neighbor as yourself" seriously, how can that go wrong? Lots of wrong has been done in the name of many different deities, but a lot of good has been done as well. Unfortunatly, a lot of people take the bible literally, which ends up with a lot of harm done, but until you've read it once or twice, really read it, slow down on the passing of judgement. Those were different times.
Also, I've read this before, feel the defense should get a shot. Crimes have been committed, but if the prosecution wishes to lay those charges, the defense would like the jury to keep in mind every dawn and sunset, the love in your wife/husband's eyes, Chasey Lain, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Barrier reef, shall I go on?
