    Another day, another name to add to my list of "aberrant" Mohammedan groups that depart from "true Islam" and decide to attack Christians (or Jews, or Buddhists, or Sikhs, etc.). Even apologists for Mohammed's religion have to admit that his teachings seem to spawn an awful lot of "aberrations" I should think.
