What went so terribly wrong with him that he wanted to resort to trying to blow up a commercial jetliner? The mind-numbing, tolerance-destroying effects of organized religion. Abrahamic faiths are particularly odious toward others. The same phenomenon that causes Christian freaks to blow up abortion clinics and murder doctors. Or deny equal rights to homosexuals. The same crap that makes Jews think they have some divine right to Palestine, even if they have to murder and imprison generations of non-Jews that were already living there to get what they want. The pure bull sh*t that was used to justify slavery. The same crap that says some will be "saved" while others will not, once Jesus lands his holy space ship in Israel and the "faithful" all rise up in naked rapture. Etc. and etc.

These religions are a scourge on the world. We'd be better off with people praying to a bag full of door knobs. Abolish this destructive, ancient nonsense and start educating everybody with real science.
