Sure, why make people have to live in the deserts of Africa to make them 
live in the equivalent of a 3rd world country.  Just cut off their food 
and water until they do what you want.

As time goes on, I realize more and more how inhumane some people who 
are driven by religious beliefs can be (and it bears little relation to 
which religion they follow).

Can this thread die yet?  It's about as enjoyable as watching a 
religious war over vi vs emacs.
