I give below a quotation from Clinton Richard Dawkins' book "The God Delusion". I think Mr. Dawkins is absolutely correct in his perspective about all types of religions in this world. Dwakins' opinion and his ideas about religion must be disseminated to all the continuents especially in the middle eastern countries where religious bigotry is at its apex.

"Many of us saw religion as harmless nonsense. Beliefs might lack all supporting evidence but, we thought, if people needed a crutch for consolation, where's the harm? September 11th changed all that. Revealed faith is not harmless nonsense, it can be lethally dangerous nonsense. Dangerous because it gives people unshakeable confidence in their own righteousness. Dangerous because it gives them false courage to kill themselves, which automatically removes normal barriers to killing others. Dangerous because it teaches enmity to others labelled only by a difference of inherited tradition. And dangerous because we have all bought into a weird respect, which uniquely protects religion from normal criticism. Let's now stop being so damned respectful!"
