    I believe the only antidote to religious violence is religious peace. The only antidote to religious intolerance is religious tolerance.

        @rezaaslan @torgosaves I don't believe. I think the solution is secular humanism.

        @rezaaslan Religious violence will end when humans put aside obviously 'man' made myths. Masculine used on purpose.

        @rezaaslan It's best to keep religion out of it; Neither extremists nor moderates have monopoly on knowing God's will. Keep it subjective.

        @rezaaslan sir , I am big fan. But respectfully disagree. Don't think ISIS/taliban like force be dealt with appeasement or tolerance.

        @rezaaslan It's not religious violence to begin with but a power struggle. The talibanis are actually enemies of Islam which Quran warned us
