    Well, there is no spiritual penalty for that if you're an atheist.

    Partly because the stigma attached to suicide was such that in the 50s many if not most were ruled "accidents".

    50s were bad also. I am talking about since the "Enlightenment". Before so people may have worked harder. But they felt like they had a purpose

    If religion wasn't around, people like Bin Laden would hold on to some other cause to meet his own ends. Some people are born with a set of bad wiring. I do think the poverty of muslims and the lack of any line between church makes it very easy for people like Bin Laden to use Islam for their own ends though.

    Binny wasnt poor neither were ANY of the 911 bombers.
