Or did you somehow miss that you tried to blame the faith/religion for what they did rather than blame THEM for USING their faith as an EXCUSE for what they did.

Here's your own title to your post...

"Don't Insult Faith? Protesters Burn 7 Churches in 4 Days."

What about that even marginally is about blaming THEM for what they did and not the faith itself? You aren't fooling anyone.

Before these attacks in France people here used to be able to recognize the difference between religion and the perverted views of extremist followers as well as the difference between a religion and its formal organization if it even has one. Not anymore. You and plenty of others have USED the attacks as an excuse to blame religion and all of the followers of any and all religions for the horrible things that the extremists believe and/or have done. And that's no different than the perversion of their faith that they do than the perversion of extremist atheists here have been doing for their non-religious faith minus the violence.
