I refer you to the Tamil Tigers, the Socialist/Athiest organisation in Sri Lanka, whose 'Black Tiger' cadre of suicide bombers have killed killed an estimated 5000+ people since the early 1980's. Coupled with a recent spate of suicide bombings in China (which don't seem to be making the news, as they appear to be carried out by people protesting the policies of the state) and several suicide attacks by the Japanese Red Army in the 1970's, and you have a bodycount which non-athiest, non-socialistically inspired killers can only aspire to. Blaming religion is lazy thinking, and I reject it.
