1. Religious law rears its ugly head once again

Society will need to get these kinds of religions into check eventually. It may prove to be a challenge since many children are taught from an early age that their religion is the most important aspect of their lives. Some are taught to kill in defense of any slights against their religion. Some followers of such a religion even go on to kill many innocents in the name of their religion.

And many followers of their religion will kill innocents in their attempt to make their religion the law of the land. The problem appears to be getting worse in some areas. We can only hope that suicidal followers do not get access to weapons of mass destruction.
