Seems like our country fought a war because one group wanted to keep another group as slaves. No religion involved. I have two ancestors who where Native American. Ran off their land; way of life destroied. No religion involved. The point being: some people being the greedy souls they sometimes are, are afraid someone else is going to have things better than they do or more. So if they can't have what the other one has, they destroy. Sometimes people are just bullies.
Lots of religious groups are at least trying to make life better for people.

I can't understand why the elevated alert in the US would bother people in other countries. It doesn't bother me and I live here. Just wondering.
