    IMHO - they're all equally non credible (uncredible? incredible?)

    They all suck.

    I threw a Family Guy reference in there just to be an idiot.

    I'm out of intelligent things to say regarding brainwashed people doing brainwashed things. What can you say, really? F**king idiots. Pure and simple.

    I got a buddy that was a NCAA Div I athlete.

    He became an aspiring Buddhist that routinely meditates. Every now and then, in the sporting arena, he forgets his Buddhist ways and reverts back to his old self!

    I always take credit for him 'losing it': "Hey! See what a positive influence I am for you!"

    But all kidding aside... I think if one was to subscribe to any religion... Buddhism would be the one. You don't see a lot of enraged Buddhists shooting people for drawing the Buddha too fat... or going to rock concerts and shooting a bunch of people yelling, "Praise Buddha!"... or discriminating against really nice, gay people... or protesting soldiers' funerals.

    No. No... actually... every Buddhist I know is pretty much what every other religion claims they are: peaceful.

    Just remember you are more likely to get strike by lightning while simultaneously being eaten by a shark than killed in a terror attack.

    Things completely out of man's control.

    What are you saying? Don't worry? Be happy? Accept terrorism as a way of life? Let those f**king idiots kill people because it's not likely it's going to be you or I?

    Card-carrying agnostic here =) Though Judaism played a large part in my coming up and it still does, to varying degrees and via different tenets.

    I'm watching a Rick Steves (card-carrying pot-smoker) documentary where he's traveling through Italy, Slovenia, Greece and Spain and documenting how the communities observe Easter. They're peaceful, gentle, somber.

    My issue will always be with those who pervert good intentions, those who try to convert or hurt others by damning them for dissimilar beliefs...those who are assholes.

    This is the exact way of thinking that Trump is against.
    People just think this is what is normal.
    Trump says it is not and we need to take pause and figure out what the fuck is happening.
    Hard choices but we have to look at the first source of this thorn.

    This will give Trump some material.

    I'm sure he will have something Provacative to say. It's no wonder The Donald doesn't have to spend much money on political ads....we the people keep him in the news. There's at least 5 threads on this board with his name in it.

    I've been through that metro system in Brussels on my way to a festival in Werchter. I hope the Belgium people will recover from this attack.

    Peace

    more importantly what does Obama have to say......I can't wait.

    What are you expecting Obama to say? He will offer sympathy, condolences, call for unity and rejection of xenophobia, and probably give a party line about "seeking justice for those responsible". Godfather, what would Godfather's ideal President of the United States say on the topic?

    To be honest, I don't think it was that stupid a statement. Coming from a country where we don't fear terrorist attacks I think I'd need to use this logic to reassure myself or I may never leave Ireland again! So I get where JC is coming from
