When religion leads to good, religion is instrumental, and takes credit.
When religion leads to harm, religion can be replaced, and is therefore innocent.
Sure, if you replace religion with <noun>. If something does good then yes, we should recognize the good that it does because we want good things in the world. If something that does good also does bad then we shouldn't hold it against it because anything can be twisted like that.
I guess that's fine... My problem is something else.
How do people decide whether something is instrumental or trivial/easily replaced in some result? Simply by the desirability of the result, and by whether they want to support the cause or not? That way, one supporting the cause can claim the cause trivial when bad stuff happens, and instrumental when good stuff happens?

Second, I always wondered how the hell they reverse a river, lol
Fellow Asian too.
I always wondered why people here don't just eat them. That's the best way to control anything.

Burning Bin Laden pictures makes more sense.
Or better, shredding so that it doesn't smell bad.

When I see this kind of thread I always wonder: What exactly are the "same major bugs" that persist "version after version"? Do they actually have that much effect on gameplay so that they really have to be fixed that quickly? I've been playing since the 0.27s and things mostly worked just fine. IMHO, exaggerating problems is not the way to report them.

I hope the old magma tubes (natural-looking ones that are different shapes on each level) come back, so that I can do another cast obsidian tower inside a magma tube.
Or just another cast obsidian tower fort.
