As per the title - The death toll in Nice continues to rise after a terrorist in a truck drove at high speed through crowds gathered along the pavement for Bastille Day celebrations.
France had the good sense to stay out of Bush's illegal invasion of Iraq, which is the direct cause of so much of the current strife in the Middle East, and France has a large muslim population, which means they have been welcoming to immigrants from muslim countries. So just exactly WTF is the problem with radical islamists that they can't just live and let live? Granted, France had a history of colonialism, but that is now history and grudges should not be carried for generation after generation.
After WWII Germany had no problem limiting free speech and criminalizing nazi-like activity and propaganda. It's about time that civilized countries take the same stance against religious extremists. The parts of the bible, quran, torah and any other religious text that advocates violence of any nature should be outlawed, just as nazi propaganda is in Germany. The texts should all be destroyed and new texts mandated that have the calls for violence removed.
The brainwashing of children should be outlawed, which means that children should be prohibited from any kind of religious indoctrination or religious services. Schools need to teach that religion is ancient superstition with absolutely no basis in fact. If knowledgeable adults want to subscribe to the ancient superstitions once they are adults, fine. But the brainwashing of children should be completely verboten.
All religions should lose their tax exempt status and any other special privileges or subsidies they receive. There are many religious architectural masterpieces that deserve preservation, however, if tax dollars are used for said preservation then the buildings need to be used only for secular purposes, such as museums which highlight the atrocities of religion.
Since it's inception, religion has been one of the biggest scams and one of the greatest evils ever perpetrated on the human race. After WWII world didn't have any problem recognizing the evils of nazism and taking appropriate measures to defeat it. It well past time that the same controls be applied to religion, ALL religions.
Enough is enough!
