Indeed seeker I myself am not religious as you know, I ask searching questions about its past questionable behavior, and own intolerances, but I am not intolerant, and do not dismiss the rational peaceful behavior, or messages spread by the majority of believers, hope you understand I am not their enemy, cheers David

Society as a whole does not seem to have evolved. Not only racial bias, even religious intolerance is widely prevalent
