Gonna sound like a broken record here, but I just can’t understand the psychology of people who want to kill others en masse, **especially** if it’s supposedly for religious reasons. As an ex-Muslim, I’ve got my own grievances with the religion, but I do know that there’s no way God, as he is described in the Quran, would want something like this to happen.

I know it makes no sense literally. Why don’t these people just kill themselves in peace 🤦🏾♂️💔

As an ex-Catholic I feel the same way. Awful things have been done in the name of so many religions, but no God of any religion should or would want anyone committing such acts. Individual or state sponsored. I’m not religious but I have faith that a majority of people around the world feel the same way.

And that's the unfortunate punchline of it all. ALL major religions' interpretation of God describe the deity one way then rely on mental gymnastics until they can justify whichever horrible deeds they seek to commit. Jew, Christian,Muslim, Buddhist,etc. no one is immune from it.
I could say we are flawed.
The truth is though that we all still have urges and instincts we haven't grown out of as a species. I wish this was understood and accepted more as something to acknowledge and learn from.

An important point of refutation.
How foolish are people to condemn more than 2 billion people as though there could be no diversity of thought.
And sheer ignorance. There isn't one form Christianity nor is there one form Islam. I'm a bit early, yet Eid Mubarak.

"planning to join Islamic State in Syria or Mozambique"
Was Mozambique his safety madrasa?
Isn't IS Syria a little 2010s?
