IMO - Those that would do something like this, and use their religion (religious indoctrination) as just cause...don't need a religion to justify their acts, anyway.
There are plenty of others sitting in the same temples, mosques, synagogues & churches that don't go through with such acts --- so, why the few that do?
It may seem, because the news magnifies such acts, that Islamic Terrorism is the greatest threat to civilization since Adolph Hitler...but, in my own family, over the course of 6 months, I've seen 2 husbands attempt to murder their wives (1 succeeded). No religious motivation in either case. Yet, these are/were acts of terror. And they happen day in and day out all across the land.
Is everyone capable of such acts?
I think that is a legitimate question.
