I meant to say Some people, not everyone is like that.

My friend doesn't get Christmas presents anymore since he doesn't believe in God. Since Christmas is about celebrating the birth of Jesus.

While I don't have a religion I think the religion that takes violence to the extreme is the Muslim religion extremist, not the people brainwashed into following Alah, just the people that blow stuff up, kill people in other religions, etc

I'm sorry, but religion doesn't "do" things to people. It's not going to come into their house at night and hit them with a bat. I'm not religious by any means, but religion is up to personal interpretation. What you decide to do with your belief system, is up to you. I think it's not uncommon for genuinely evil people to use religion, if not that, anything else they can find, in a desperate attempt to justify their vile natures or activities. I wouldn't place the blame on religion. A murderer who believes in God is still a murderer.
