Presumably the gunman is one of Egypt's militants who murder people in an attempt to establish a religious government. Their craving for a dream state keeps smugglers and killers employed. It's dismaying that religion is entwined in many of the nightmares. In Bosnia, what Catholics, Muslims and Orthodox Christians are doing to each other defies logic. It's a replay of the religious annihilation that ruined Lebanon a decade earlier.
Secular horrors are just as evil.
That's a perfect maxim for everyone. But it isn't easy, with so much craziness going on.
