not saying that those who are, are not sincere in their beliefs. I just think many have been misguided in their beliefs, largely through the culture and surroundings they have grown up in.
Imagine yourself (in a twist of fate) having been born to a family who is in Gaza right now... having been taught and grown up in the Muslim faith, and seeing your family, friends, children, neighbors and countrymen having their limbs blown off and starving right now... yet still believing, sincerely, that God will avenge and/or save you and yours... if not in this life, then in the next. Would you have a choice to believe otherwise? Would it be easier to perhaps have your beliefs altered after seeing something like that from afar, or from a different perspective maybe?
