If Church were integrated, then religion would be responsible for the actions of its politicians and the culture of the day.

Case in point. Mindfulcoug is careful to point out that "we don't understand, the Surahs and the Hadiths" don't allow for honor killings. But what she ignores is that by virtue of a theocratic government, Religion in Iran is responsible for the culture, one which encourages "honor killings" and Murder through a death fatwa.

Right now, western religion is NOT responsible for the mess in Iraq. Our politicians are.

If we were in control, our religionists would be responsible.
