If your moral compass is so weak that you need "a higher power" to tell you that what is happening to that poor child is wrong then you are no different than those people sitting there watching indifferently.

Empathy for a suffering creature has nothing to do with religion. If anything, the lack of religion frees you from caring ONLY for those of your kind but for EVERYONE, regardless of faith.

And before you tell me that personal religion and organized religion are two different things, I ask you - how come more followers don't speak out against their own organizations when they commit atrocities?

But anyway, we digress into the argument that religion = morality; we will never reach agreement. What we can agree on is that the video is disturbing and we would love to spend just 5 minutes alone in a room with that douche-bag.

But let's not paint a whole race with one wide brush. There are a-holes everywhere and just about all cultures have done much worse to much younger.
