A.P.J. Abdul KalamFor great men, religion is a way of making friends; small people make religion a fighting tool.
About This Quote
People who see religion as a way of making friends are people who do not make religion their number one priority. For example, if you are religious and you are trying to pass the time on an airplane, you should go about doing something other than praying. By trying to make religion your priority, you are only putting yourself in harm's way. People who view religion as a fighting tool are people who use their religion to intimidate or fight with others. Some people will use their faith as a means to intimidate the non-believers.
