Isn't that the source of most of religious conflicts ? We all think that the OTHER ONES have been getting the wrong message, so to protect our views we feel that we might have to go as far as destroying the other in the name of GOD... (we meaning us human) and the fluff in these Holy Books doesn't help. I call fluff the stuff that helps us weak human to get lost in interpretation instead of the basic message that these books were meant to bring us.
