re: #133 CuriousLurker

You’re probably right. A lot of the people are most likely couching things in religious terms because, well, they’re Muslim and they’re in a dire situation so they’d naturally turn to their faith for hope/strength (doesn’t mean they want a theocracy). I guess I just get a little nervous in not wanting the Islamists being the loudest voices.

It’s a very secular society if memory serves from what i’ve read about it - all i’ve heard on the BBC radio all afternoon is professors and others from Libya breaking down and screaming - literally - “save our souls”.
They are desperate and desperate people often go to God for a frame of reference.
