The Middle East is prime example of what religion does to countries if left to run amok. The Middle East at one point had the most advanced civilizations on this planet however the fact that they revolved around their religious beliefs never allowed them to move very far away from the stone ages.
The advances of Europe, America came because we realized when to sideline the religious kooks. You can bet your ass if the West hadn't tamed the churches we would also be locked in the stone ages with those in the Middle East.
This should be reason alone to vote any fucker out of office that caters to the religious loonies above all else.
