You're wrong. 2/2 is not enough for it to be considered secterian. 20/20 is.

Also, they voted for the guy who actually won the election. If the two voted for Tarek and Tarek got like 7 votes out of 100, then yes you could make the claim that they may have voted for him only based on religious affiliation.

If kids elect other kids to do kids stuff without taking religion into consideration, then maybe one day these kids would grow and become adults who elect other adults to do adult stuff without taking religion into consideration. Maybe then we will have a civilized nation.

Sorry to spoil the joy, but usually the christians have no problem in electing muslims who do well their job, it is on the contrary muslims who vote for a leader (with 90% no matter what happens and he says) of their religion no matter how much corrupt he is.

In the 2005 elections, sunnis whom many where with FPM, with one fatwa practically all deserted FPM and voted for Hariri even though he had allied with 8th of March.
On the other hand, a lot of christians supported Rafic El Harriri.

Now if we can witness many christians refusing to vote for non christian leaders it is because of their reaction to how muslim voters vote.

I would say there is real hope for Lebanon when the same thing happens in a muslim school and a christian person wins the election despite his religion being a minority.

(That being said, don't misunderstand me, I am not saying that this event isn't a positive thing, on the contrary it means that FPM was able to achieve REAL CHANGE into the minds of the people it represents)

i think that sectarianism has corrupted so much so deep the lebanese society, at a point that hope is raised when kids are just "being" kids. that is sad.

usually christians have as much problem in electing muslims as muslims have problem in electing christians.
the 90 % of muslim voting for the corrupted leader of theirs are voting for him for his corrupted christian allies at the same time.
the christians that support hariri are just as many as the sunni that support aoun.... since always in this country leaders had followers from other sects, even bashir jmayyel had few muslim followers (both sunni and shiites). that doesn't prove anything.

there have always been both muslims and christians from all confessions following other standards than religious affiliation, but to bad they are minorities in both sides.
