Not just God Believers.

Atheistic Ideologies. Nazi, Marxist, et al. Have also murdered and enslaved over 1 Billion People.

Perhaps the problem isn't the Religion or Secular Atheistic Ideology. But Murdering Psychopaths using the Religion and/or Ideology, to commit their heinous acts.

Exactly.

Religion is not limited to a belief in some particular god or gods, unless your dictionary is different.

Mine is not different... The Merriam-Webster dictionary definition includes:


4 : a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith



which... includes quite a bit of what is posted about around here....

global anthropogenic climate change...

gun rights...

freedom & liberty...

84 dead. As of now.
Including 10 CHILDREN!

And...
French health officials say 188 patients were taken to hospitals in the Alpes-Maritimes area after the attack.

Of these, 48 are in a state of "absolute urgency", and 25 are in resuscitation.

50 children were taken to Children's Hospital Laval Foundation after the attack. Two of them have since died.

Yes it's a war. But against whom or what?
In this case it's seems like an act of a madman and not a terrorist.

BBC Tunisia correspondent Rana Jawad is in Msaken and caught up with Bouhlel's father Monthir:
"He took his treatment, his medicine, and we thought he was doing well - here's the medical certificate. I took him to the psychologist, he followed his treatment but sometimes he would have nervous breakdowns and he would break everything and demolish everything. He has had a nervous problem and when he becomes nervous he breaks everything. He had problems with his wife and I think that added to his mental health issues."

Truck terrorist Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel was an 'unlikely jihadist' who flouted every rule of Islam, his cousin told MailOnline today.
The 31-year-old drank alcohol, ate pork and took drugs.
He never prayed or attended a mosque, and hit his wife - with whom he had three children aged five, three and 18 months - and was in the process of getting a divorce.

No one, throughout human civilization. Has been able to destroy a hateful religion, nor a hateful ideology.

There will always be hateful Religious Theology, Nazi's, Marxists, etc.


Agree with you here....

We, the Civilized World, can only defeat their belief in their victory.


...I swear you make this stuff up as you go along. Fortune cookie?

It is not Trump which is fueling their belief in their inevitable victory. But Western Leaders, who believe as you do.


Yeah, Trump's support of hateful speech and hateful ideas doesn't fuel anything at all. /s

ISIS officially claims responsibility for the Nice attack.

Still French investigators officially have not established a link between the offender and the terrorist group.
A French government source stated to Reuters that they know about the ISIS statement and that they are working to verify the claim.
