With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

If we are going to take military action against someone, skip this foreplay and go straight to the nuclear option

Little exploding rounds are going to be used as direct-fire anti-personnel weapons; they hit a person and then explode inside them. This is an example of needless harm that the geneva conventions are designed to prevent.
Big exploding rounds are for anti-vehicle or indirect fire; tank shells, grenades, rpgs, artillery rounds etc. They either need to penetrate a hardened target, or take out a vehicle, or they are area-effect (indirect fire) weapons which explode externally to the target. In any case, their explosive nature is of direct utility; they could not accomplish the same goal without being explosive.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Armo rounds are currently solid darts.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
