In the wake of the recent triple murder in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, atheists are quick to point the finger at the religion of Islam. But there is no evidence that Islam is responsible for these acts of violence, and no evidence to suggest that atheists are responsible for anything like this at all. In fact, Islam is the source of most violence in the world, not the cause of it. And if we are decent human beings, we will recognize as being morally insane, a man who is merely holding a relative's bloodied hands, or a relative who is not a relative at all, is not merely holding your hands with your blood, but is holding your blood in your hands, as in, "Blood is not blood, adultery, blasphemy, or blood is blood, it is blood."
