I chose the Quran because it relates to this thread (I'm trying to stay at least slightly on track here), and I'm using the quranexploroer for my quotes. I'm actually listening to it right now. Chapter 2 jumps straight in to admonishing the unbelievers. If you believe your good, if you don't believe, your bad.

That's not just Islam, that's every religion.

As for Pol Pot. I'd say he did that in the name of Communisim. And yes, communism has led to ghastly atrocities, which might be why it's kind of fallen out of fashion amongst most people.

Now you're talking about why they did it rather then why they said they did it.

Which is contrary to your actual point.

Farming was seen as the "Key to enlightnment." specifically because it led to an ideal communist state.
