# do you actually know anyone who is a mormon or a muslim?
they're actually both clever fairy stories to scare children with. notice how they both begin with the letter m? the people making all this up got bored trying to think of different letters to use

# Pfft, really?
Did s/he know they were liqueur chocolates? Might've been placebo effect. 'These are alcoholic, therefore I must be pissed'.

# She didn't know, otherwise she wouldn't have eaten them

# im not blaming religion for wars, just religion is used by the leaders as an excuse for wars,

It's been that way for about 1000 years at least.

# This.
If we didn't have any religion we'd still find things to fight over. If we were all the same colour and sex we'd still find things to kill each other over.
