NONE of them worshiped God.
True, many horrible crimes were committed in the name of religion,but every day ,many wonderful acts are also done in the name of religion.
I dont know who you mean by "we" ,when you say "as long as we let people worship god" ,but it cant mean me.I'm not so perfect myself,that I could dictate to others how to live.
Perhaps "we" means you.Perhaps you are of such moral and intellectual superiority that you could take it upon yourself to not "let" people have beliefs different from yours.
If so,join the ranks of those listed above.

Bra fucking vo!

Are you sure you are Canadian?
