Lol, I agree with a fair amount of what he says

>where do you get this shit?

I got my opinions like everyone else, I guess.

>So it's wrong for a people to be
>pious?

Not at all, but it's hurting that area of the world to forgo modernization in the name of religious piety.

>What should they do? Give up salat, and get a tivo?

I'm not sure i can answer this, I don't know what salat is.

>where is the benefit in that?

Hopefully the end result is the end of terrorism. Innocent people are being killed, and it's thier own people that are suffering the most.
