Put another way, "In God I trust. It's his followers that scare the crap out of me."
The vast majority of people of all beliefs; Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Hindu, Republicans, Democrats,
etc. are fine trustworthy people. It is the
zealots that scare the crap out of me. When they become both religious
and political zealots they should scare the crap out of everybody.
Malala Yousufzai is extraordinary and her willingness to stand up to the zealots demonstrates a level of courage that is absolutely remarkable. I would nominate her for next year's Nobel prizes. If she were to win the prize, I only hope that it would not be a posthumous award.
