Different religions use different methods some subtle some not but control is the central point of it all. At the end of the day a good person is a good person because of personal choice and by making the correct decisions for themselves nothing nauseates me more then going to a funeral and hearing how god and a particular faith made someone a good person when you know they never really practised religion and never went to church.
It is stealing that persons way of living and what their life stood for corrupting it into some religious reason when the fact is they were a good person because they chose to be. By the same token terrorists are terrorists because they choose to be and choose to use violence to obtain their goals.

Well said!
In my view all religions are about controlling people by brainwashing or fear, this can be tame as in most christian religion to the other end of the scale in the case of the smaller religion. Islam is certainly way up there with the extreme religions, why people are afraid of religion is a complete mystery to me.
