Church of the Unholy Punch Up  by tonybeme

Armenian and Greek Orthodox worshippers and clergy have a fist fight in Jerusalem's Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

What is wrong with the world when even the holy  people are fighting?

Interesting Comment.  Interesting Imagery.  Interesting state of affairs.

I would suggest the problem is that we tend to mindlessly buy into the imagery and attitudes that religions market themselves with.  Whereas I think the reality is... that like with any large corporation; what they sometimes say and sometimes do can be quite different things.

For an excellent, very readable insight into the gritty reality of organized religion and violence, I strongly recommend Christopher Hitchen's book "Good is Not Great!"

Surely thoughtful people will agree it is all quite religulous.
