People forget, far too often.
Religion can be a beautiful thing. It can bind communities into pillars of generosity and spirit. It can teach the great to support the wretched. It can allow for humility and understanding, inspire justice and fair play. It can armor a heart against fear. As long as religion contains the spiritual element of mercy.
Otherwise, all is fire and blood.
