  1. As ever with these things, this boils down to the human tribal mentality linked to race (Azerbaijani Azeris v Armenians), religion (Islam v Christianity) and language (Azerbaijani v Armenian). When I consider who I am, my ‘ethnicity’ is next to meaningless. An accident of birth. Equally, I care not a jot about anyone else’s ethnicity when I judge another human being. As an agnostic, I see all organised religion as manmade and, essentially, a human control mechanism along with a comforting fairy tale to shore up the human fear of death. Yes, my language is fairly key to my identity but, as someone who speaks 3 other languages, the only reason English takes precedence is another accident of birth. All told, ethnicity, organised religion and language have so much to answer for when it comes to human internecine conflict.
