Just replace "religious movements" with "secular
movements" (communism, fascism, nazism etc) and your
statement not only reads exactly the same but when
push comes to shove the secular movements end up being
responsible for far more death and carnage. But the
cryonet's been down this road many times before. 

Which leads me to another thought. It amazes me how
often we, as a mostly non-religious group (present
company excluded), end up talking about religion. I
suspect, in part, because we've almost established one
of our own. ;)
