It's a sorry state of mind and heart and disturbing on so many levels. That is what happens when mind and ego get a hold of spiritual things. It happens in the Muslim world too and whenever ego/mind gets involved with spirit.
Sri Ramakrishna used to say, "Spiritual practice done with the lower animal mind, Jiva, Ego, leads back into the world instead of into spirit."
That is what creates discord and chaos where spirituality creates peace and accord.
