Religious people vote. They elect people who share their beliefs. Those elected officials pass laws that all of us will have to abide by regardless of faith (or lack thereof). Everyone should care what religion does to hold back a modern society.

Go ahead and bring up 9/11. Keep in mind if you take what is known about it with truth, then you would also be under the assumption that Bin Laden carried it off through some other people. He is not uneducated and he understands what the Koran really does say. He himself would know that what he was doing was not inline with gods commands. He can use it as an excuse to get uneducated people to do his bidding. I just will not accept that if someone does something under the name of religion when it goes against the very religious beliefs that religion holds dear, then it is the acts of that person and not the religion itself.
