@mikeschaefer2808 Are you suggesting that you are good ... and that only other people are evil?
That reminds me of the self-serving book with the title "Why do bad things happen to good people?"
I no longer believe that the universe was created. But back when I did believe in the existence of a god ... I wrote the following ... and for those who still do believe in the existence of a god ... I suggest that the words at least gives a potent message.
Do you agree?
Mirror of your Soul.
Come share the story of my life, so interesting to tell.
I am the bible in the drawer, my home is a motel.
Many people handle me and read my words it's true,
Taking what they "will" to find, while missing the real clue.
There came a man so full of pride, with all the things he'd done.
He laughed at me; threw me down and turned the T. V. on.
A woman with a child in tow, read words self-righteously,
Stating how "they" would be saved, others hell would see.
A lady of such style and class, turned my pages cold,
While stating with authority, "Negroes don’t have souls."
Then came a tender aged man, illiterate I knew,
Holding me with gentle care, such warmth I seldom knew.
Tears flowed down his wrinkled face, as my cover he kept closed,
With love he held for others, my clue he did unfold.
Yes, I'm the bible of God's word, the mirror of your soul.
You receive just what you bring to me, for you must choose your goal.
Man-made words will confuse, if confused you choose to be.
But when you know that God is love, my symbol you will see.

After reading her book "Infidel" it is easy to understand that after the terrible things that happened to her in childhood, and as an adult, Ayaan is very bitter towards Islam.
But there are many ways of perceiving ... and to balance out Ayaan's bitterness I suggest we should pay attention to the words of this Jewish woman, who has a different point of view concerning problems in the Middle East.
From the book … Sipping from the Nile … My exodus from Egypt … author … Jean Naggar
“Despite that understanding that her efforts could permanently undermine the way of life she had always known, Auntie Helen, accompanied by her distinctive cane, traveled alone again and again to Suez and Ismailia after the end of the Second World War to supervise and expedite the loading of Jews emigrating to Palestine onto makeshift boats in the dead of night.
Certainly, the formation of the State of Israel changed the dynamic between Arab and Jew in the Middle East. It became a polarizing magnet, leading to huge rifts in the standing social structure, cutting through generations of tradition and peaceable interaction.
While most Jews world-wide rejoiced that Jews would at last have a homeland, those in Arab countries cast a wary eye at the chasm that was opening beside them, threatening irrevocably their safety and their way of life.
While I thought of my aunt as a fascinating person, I had no concept of the seismic shift that her activities were helping to produce in the internal psychological geography of the Arab countries, which were never again to accept their Jewish neighbors as brothers.
With the creation of the State of Israel, militant Islam was granted a voice and a cause.”
