To all my friends who are "literal" interpreters of the Bible -- we cannot return to the times of the Old Testament, so stop using it to inform and justify your current behaviors. To all my friends who are Muslim -- our God does not believe in your vanity; you cannot kill indiscriminately because our Mullah is crazy-angry at the West and sets a "fatwah" against them. Crazy backward-looking thinking of a thousand years ago cannot justify nor support your absolutely evil behavior in the present.
To kill by beheading -- and advertises it on the web to enhance your recruiting for your insane wars is evil; it is against faith; it is against life. It is bizarre and insane. It is justified only by your own madness and ego.
To believe that a century's old book can somehow bring us a moral guide for the present and for the future is insane and bizarre. To deny all we know through science because it contradicts the "fanciful poetry of the Bible" is insane.
To ISIS and to the literal interpreters of the Bible -- you are both insane.
