WHEN RELIGION BECOME MURDEROUS

Probably not many people have come across Asia Bibi's case. This case is very intresting and shocking at the same time. While one could expect that religions should be pioneers of peace and harmony, Asia's case brings quiet a contrary story as it turns religion into a killing machine. This lady has been sentenced to death in Pakistan 'for blasphemy' --that she spoke some bad words agaist Islam. What complecates more this story is the fact that the authenticity of the allegations is highly questionable(according to the sources). I still stand to believe that the sole responsibility of any religion should be that of preserving peace, harmony and happiness within our societies and short of these qualities then that institution deserve its own name.
