I don't disagree that those young arab boys are in a destructive environment which is associated with their religion. I'm asking a different question however.

I don't disagree that those young arab boys are in a destructive environment which is associated with their religion. I'm asking a different question however. If you removed religion from human experience, would there would be no more beheadings? Or would the elements of human nature which result in beheadings simply find a different cultural element to attach themselves to?
