Violent faith-heads really believe what they say they believe. You think you know what they believe better than they do? How patronising.

For those of you that think the #PeshawarAttack was barbaric, you just don't understand Islam properly.... pic.twitter.com/G8U8xwzTxw

Pakistan school: "Jihadis screamed 'Allahu akbar' as they murdered children."
Definitely not religiously-motivated at all! @RichardDawkins

Mental illness can drive a lone nutter to it. But an organised group needs an extreme motivation – faith, in something like a god or nazism.

Very few faith-heads are as evil as Taliban or IS. Yet what else but faith is CAPABLE of making people do such evil?

Don't defend the faith of the victims. Defend the victims of the faith.

In 2001 after 9/11 Dawkins said:
'Many of us saw religion as harmless nonsense. Beliefs might lack all supporting evidence but, we thought, if people needed a crutch for consolation, where's the harm? September 11th changed all that. Revealed faith is not harmless nonsense, it can be lethally dangerous nonsense. Dangerous because it gives people unshakeable confidence in their own righteousness. Dangerous because it gives them false courage to kill themselves, which automatically removes normal barriers to killing others. Dangerous because it teaches enmity to others labelled only by a difference of inherited tradition. And dangerous because we have all bought into into a weird respect, which uniquely protects religion from normal criticism. Let's now stop being so damned respectful!'

Does it surprise anyone (besides @BenAffleck) that the Taliban killers in Pakistan, while killing 141, shouted "Allahu akbar"? God is great?

This Eid Shias were targeted in Kohat, Peshawar and Quetta in 3 different incidents. The victims had one thing in common. Their faith.

Another victory for true faith against the infidels: 17 killed in Peshawar including 8 kafir children.

BBC News - Peshawar cinemas attacked in Pakistan protests http://t.co/Al0vZ7ra Never mock other people's faith.

I hope you will revisit your faith in Islam. Peshawar was not the last terror attack. Leave the cult and be an atheist. :) @Hunter_Rooh
