Ah, I remember reading this in my 10th grade English class. I thought it was brilliant.

Thanks for posting. As relevant today as when it was written (sadly).

There are things worse than war itself, such as living as a slave under the boot heels of barbarians.

If the self-ordained rulers of a certain blind and primitive religion (which shall not be named here) were eliminated forever, perhaps two or three generations from now that religion's sincere adherents would be allowed intellectual freedom and a chance to join the 21st century.

Until that happens, the fanatics leave the non-fanatics no choice but to commit theocide far and wide, for our very survival depends on their ways not surviving.

I agree with quantumushroom that there are worse things than war (although not many).

But as for the rest--and I say this as an ex-muslim/current atheist--it appears he was one of the kids who rode the short bus to school....and licked the windows the entire way.
