I looked up the definition of sectarian and it means violence between sects of the same basic religion. Lebanon was between different religions. But the point is not lost as the violence was not sponsored by religious writings. But that's kind of moot. This part of the thread was on the premise that other religious works are just as violent. My point is that the religious writings of other religions are not used as the primary reason for mass murder. Christians in Lebanon didn't get up and say that they had to fight because it was in the Bible, did they?
