I agree 100%, Ralf. The major threat to humanity today is religious fundamentalism, regardless of the religion. Here in the USA we have the so-called "fundamentalist Christians" seeking to take away our rights and impose their narrow-minded view of the world. In many other parts of the world we have muslim extremists seeking to do the same. The idea of just leaving people alone to live their lives as they see fit is anathema to both of these groups.
