Finish with Religion? Noooo! Finish with Science!!
tony1,
Get over it... Ctchululu... or is Cthcuthucthu? Or Cthulalula... well... whatever that thing is, it doesn't exist...
It's just an illusion of her imagination...
Jan Ardena,
Don't be so agressive with them...
I'm sorry, but I have to say...
You forgot the Golden Rule...
Love
Aut-postius,
Certainly, we're living in terribly troubled times. Globalization is taking place quickly, cultures are clashing - and extreme religious beliefs are being imposed in extreme ways. Cough, middle-east, *cough...
The war is much more on power and money. Sorry about my honesty and criticism, but you are just one more brainwashed by the so called US media, the third power, the power of opinion.
Use common sense and you'll get the to the truth.
The Jihad is only a little part of the Qu'arain (don't remember how to spell... sorry...
). The Qu'arain as ALL other Religions preach about Love even to your "enemies" (specially actually, because they need to be prayed on) and peace and Compassion. That's the Essence of all Religion.
It is overtly apparent that modern religion is an easy way to control the ebb and flow of any societies world view. It's also an easy way to turn the poor into rebel fighting groups. However, it is ultimately the individuals fault (in my opinion) for not thinking freely.
You seem to be talking much more about the media then Religion here. If you don't know, all the information you got on your little godly black box is filtrated by the government. This happens all around the world.
Really? So why we are almost destroying ourselves??
Even if there was a being that governed and created the universe, it is my feeling that our minds are still too undeveloped to even fathom it's existence. And a being of this magnitude would surely not concern itself with the moral decisions of persons on earth.
He has more concern to you than you can expect. But first you need to Trust Him, otherwise as He does not exist for you, He won't be able to do nothing...
So my question to you, my peers is, why do we put up with this behaviour? I think it's time to begin a real campaign to end religion for good. We'd all be a lot happier - in my opinion.
Do you really want to finish something that teach us to Love each other? Do you really want to finish with something that gives us peace and teach us that there are things more valuable than a damn green piece of paper? Something that promotes Love, Compassion, Peace... Something that teaches us virtues such as honesty, humility...
Perhaps we should finish with Science, as we are not Wise enough to use it only for our good... Instead, we use it to destroy ourselves with nuclear bombs. Then, after we have those Religious principles and virtues, and Wisdom enough not to fight with each other, then, only then, we begin everything again...
And it sure beats nuking everybody.
You just proved that the real problem is Science, and not Religion. If it weren't the nukes, there won't be no problem...
Love and Peace to all of you,
Nelson
