when will the killing stop

I watched my beautiful girlfriend go away on holidays, only to have her come back in a coffin in the first Bali bombings. She was a peaceful loving accepting person. Unfortunately i do not have the same tolerance. I have learned to hate. If you could walk in my shoes or her family's shoes maybe someone will understand. But with pain comes hate, and anyone who has lost a loved one senselessly and needlessly will understand. When will the killing stop in the name of religion. IT HAS TO STOP. Too many parents, brothers, sisters, friends are dying. It has to stop.
