So just because you are born there now, you must be evil , so not worthy of a normal life ? Regardless of sides , there are always innocent victims.
The ones who can't get out, because they don't have the money or power to get out.
They suffer every day, on both sides.

As always, it's not the everyday people who are the problem here, it's those who have power ( on either side ) , and just want to have more of it.

you are using the word "dangerous" in an odd context. Even the most rabid Democrat on Slashdot lacks the ability to reach through the screen and strangle you. You may have meant "disapproved of", or "likely to be condemned." Possibly even "harshly moderated".

I would have agreed with you many years ago, until I made the unfortunate mistake of clicking a goatse link.
It may not be physical strangulation, but as far as psychological damage goes, it's not far off.

The problem is : religion and politics are intermixed. In fact, it's almost impossible to separate them.
And this is because to the government, religion is a powerful tool to control everyone.

Ever heard a president at the end of a speech ( "God bless America" ) .

The problem with religion is that it can't be questioned. So when someone ( for example a politician ) uses religion for his own gains, the truly religious will follow it, no matter what.

The only way to avoid it would be to ignore religious dogma, and truly try finding it on your own. That's a much harder, but much more useful journey to take.
