I think this movie is simply missing the big picture. What's really wrong here is not radical Islam. It is religion. Religion is destructive, these "theologies" are the most successful fairy tales ever told, and they are delusions. Billions of people have been killed in the name of religion and there are no words to describe what a tragedy it is that these deaths were 110% unnecessary. The movie Obsession is simply reinforcing the idea that religion divides people. Think about it, people are being killed because of differences in what they think is watching over us in the sky. It is that simple.

We need to stop blaming radical Islam, and start looking at ourselves. What good are we doing by making movies about people who want to destroy America? Why don't we think about all the people Christians have killed in the name of god. Why can't we make this a fight against fundamentalism. A fight against hating people because of their religious beliefs. A fight against wasting billions of dollars, an infinity of time, a lifetime of grief. A fight against murder, alienation, destruction of knowledge. A fight against people who are against furthering our scientific knowledge, a fight against people who don't want teenagers to know how to use condoms. A fight against the spread of disease, the indoctrination of children. A fight against sexual oppression, psychological damage. A fight against useless, detrimental religious belief.

It is horrible what has happened to American people because of terrorism. But have we not put this on ourselves? This was supposed to be a country of religious freedom. Our founding fathers were secularists. And it has been little more than 50 years since we put "Under god" in our pledge of allegiance, and "in god we trust" on our currency. America has become a theocracy. There are states where I would not be able to run for office because I do not believe in a deity. The problem is not radical Islam. It is the tendency of human beings to divide themselves based on false pretenses like religion, social status, and race.

If I were not an atheist, I would believe in a God who would choose to save people on the basis of the totality of their lives and not the pattern of their words. I think he would prefer an honest and righteous atheist to a TV preacher whose every word is God, God, God, and whose every deed is foul, foul, foul. - Isaac Asimov

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. - Steven Weinberg
