A Bangladeshi-American blogger was killed in a brutal attack on Friday. Daily Mail: “The Bangladeshi-American blogger who was hacked to death by machete-wielding Muslim extremists on his way back from a book fair had taken another stand against violent religious extremism days before his death.”
“Dr Avijit Roy, a scientist from Atlanta, Georgia, and a prominent atheist thinker in Bangladesh, was killed on a university campus in Dhaka on Thursday night – apparently in retaliation for criticizing religion.”

What kind of extremists was that again? Muslim? Surely not The Religion of Peace! This was a tragedy and I really do not have to point that out do I? I am so glad this kind of thing is not happening in The United States yet . . . emphasis on “Yet.”
Could be, John.

I can’t still wrap my mind on how miguided some people can be …. and how much wrong has been done in the name of religion. Religion is man-made. Spirituality is universal! This is sad, so very sad!!
Horrible. Horrible. Horrible. So sad.
