That is the point I was trying to get across; when public safety is a concern,
we can no longer afford to be politicaly correct insofar as religion matters
are concerned. I have no problem if people want to believe what ever myth they
want, so long as they keep it to themselves and it causes no harm. Sadly, this
just isn't the case any more, as religious fundamentalism would appear to be on
the rise (not just Muslims, but Christians alike); how often do we open our
news papers to a story of another child's death cause by the parents religious
ignorance? Well once is often, and more than that should not be tolerated.
