        @SamHarrisOrg my only issue here is the focus on Islam. Dogma in all religion leads to nasty outcomes, it shuts down thinking and debate

        @No1451 Show me the equivalently dangerous dogmas among the Jains, Amish, Unitarians, etc. And remind me of their suicidal atrocities.

        @SamHarrisOrg @AtheistStoned @No1451 why can't we specific about how bad each religion is, rather than attempt a false equivalency?

        @toxicpath @SamHarrisOrg @AtheistStoned @No1451 ok we get it "all dogma is bad".Now can we talk about which dogma(s) are worst, w/solutions?

        @toxicpath @SamHarrisOrg @AtheistStoned @No1451 for ex, "death to apostates" seems higher on the list than "crystals have healing powers"

        @toxicpath @SamHarrisOrg @AtheistStoned @No1451 just to make sure I got it - "we can/should compare specific dogma, but not religions."?

        @BitchingOrk you can discuss whatever you like. I'm not denying you the right simply questioning the efficacy

        @SamHarrisOrg Then with the same lack of evidence, you point to a school-yard suicide bombing and claim it was jihadist. (2/2)

        @JakeRyanCalvin @SamHarrisOrg Does the SUICIDE part of the bombing not ring any alarm bells for you?

        @TCharundel So the only motive for a suicide attack is Jihadism? Were the Japanese that used suicide attacks in WWII Jihadists too?

        @JakeRyanCalvin Obviously not. When was the last suicide attack by a Zen Buddhist though? You are clutching at straws.

        @TCharundel So only religion or ideology can motivate a suicide attack? Not even Sam agrees with that. He mentions crazy people in his essay

        @BrettKeaneVideo Even if true, it wasn't atheism that motivated it since atheism isn't a doctrine. Religious doctrine can prompt killing.

        @SamHarrisOrg When you need an essay to explain a tweet times are tough. I agreed with the tweet and thought it was pretty clear.
