        And that is a problem. This is why people lump Islam in one group. When they can destroy something like this because of their archaic religion it's a problem.

        And what do you expect from the least tolerant ideology on the planet? Destruction is all they know (and beating women)

        Religion is great... not all theologies are the same. Islam, Christianity and say Buddhism are extremely different from one another. The first destroys, the second builds, 3rd does neither. If you remove all religion, something else that serves the same purpose takes its place.pic.twitter.com/hPHyv4sAPg

        I stayed here for my Honeymoon and snorkled through the beautiful statues. Im so sad and thinking about all of the wonderful people who work there and were so proud of this. Sickening.

        If the artist had bothered to study the country he was working, then he would understand what happened to the non-Abrahamic faiths ... also, you have to employ these ISIS like minded people somehow - more cultural enrichment ... but enjoy your vacation!
