Q3 Blog #13

This outside reading is supposed to be about a text about war. So I read an article in the L.A. Times called "West Bank Shooting Kills 2 Israeli Police." Although Israel is not currently at war but that area of the globe has been torn by war since humans settled there. Recently however formal war is not under war, but it is things like police shootings that can pull it back into war. That is why this is an important article. An event like this could be a small spark to set off another war. Of course the underlining cause is religion. It disturbs me that people can be so blinded by religion that they could wish death on millions of people who don't belive the same thing as them. If it weren't for religion no one would care were a guy named Moses or Jesus or Muhammad stood. They certainly wouldn't shoot each other to own it. Think of all the people who have lost there lives because of religion. Religion is stunting the growth of human kind so we must be rid of it. Then again what would we have left to kill each other over?
