I personally believe in Jesus and actually respect others right not to. So when I read ignorant rants about chrisitans it makes me wonder why people cant respect other peoples beliefs. If you praise satan thats you I personally dont care but dont bash people who believe in Jesus just because you dont or chose not to.

Leave religion out of this forum especially for the people who wanna bash christians or jesus.... Respect everyone's religion. Whats so hard about that?

Some people want to bash a religion but they have no idea what its about. Some people never read 1 single page from the bible or stepped inside the church and all of a sudden, they think they know all about the religion. It's ridiculous.

The biggest problem with religion is not the message, but the messenger. Organised religion is deeply hypocritical. When you see the Pope (for example) and hundreds of cardinals living in luxury in the vast palaces in the Vatican State, with hundreds of millions of dollars being horded away, I always wonder how they can talk about charity to others when all that money could help millions of people worldwide. Religion on a small scale, within local communities, can make a big difference to peoples lives but so much more, given the resources of these organisations, could be done.

I personally do not believe in the existence of a God but Im happy to respect others peoples delusions ;) !

nicely said..
I don't understand this ..
what gives those catholic preists the right to molest all of those boys and get away with it??
because they read it somewhere in the bible.

what made parents from opposing churches throw rocks at small children
because they wanted to go to a school in thier area..??(protestant and catholic)
because they each beleive that thier god is the right god and that those innocent children had no place in thier society.

what caused 1000's of jehovah witnesses in the late 70's to go mad..??
cause they were told that 1975 was the year the world was going to end..
(my mother actually ended up in a psychiatric ward so i know wot em talking about.)

why were the jew persecuted..??
because they were blamed for the death of jesus.


why were females who did things differently in the olden days burnt at the stake and labelled witches..?
because thier practises were not recognised in the bible.

why are palestines and israel killing eachother..??
occupation of the holy land.

last but not least..
do i dare mention the mr jones saga and all the ppl who he convinced to commit suicide.

I want to point out a couple of fallacies here.

1. We should stop talking about religion especially if we're going to bash Christianity? So does that mean we can talk about religion if we're only gonna bash Judaism? Your comment was a little self-important don't you think?

2. I've read a huge chunk of the Bible (as much as I could stand), and studied Christianity as part of my degree. I can honestly say that I wasn't impressed. That is my INFORMED opinion.

3. Don't call Christianity "religion." It is A religion not THE religion. There are lots of practicing Hindus, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Sikhs, Janes, Taoists, Indigenous tribes, Wiccans, and various religious scholars who would agree on that one. Their religion and/or understanding of religion is just as valid.

I'm sorry if it seems I'm coming down on you. For one thing, I'm having a bad day. For another, this is my life's study. It's something I'm passionate about.

No I respect what you have said here although I disagree I mean christainty is a large if not the biggest religon out there and as for the catholic church I dont support it because I feel it is crooked with all the sex scandal and as mentioned before the $ but Im baptist and I know they dont have that great of a reputation but theres alot worse the that even though sime baptist do shove religion in your face at times which I dont agree should be done. Its a big world people are different everywhere as are beliefs and that should be respected because it keeps things intresting in life.

Talking Religion

Religion is a pointless exercise in controlling others behavior & sexual mores. Nothing else has caused more destruction in the course of human civilazition then religion. Accept maybe sex or religion & sex :D :p
