Why in the world would you ask this sorta thing on an internet board? this is something that YOU yourself has to really look into all you're doing here is starting an argument.
Foxi4 said:No.QUOTE said:ahh..I was waiting for you, funny that no Jew or Christian had a problem with it.
They chose to ignore it, including me. You picked the worst starting line ever, calling someone an idiot because his beliefs are not 100% like yours is retarded and only a close-minded moron could come up with such a concept.
all the same crap.QUOTE said:I said it about all three religions and if you couldn't see this, or you are a strict religious person, than you're really a moron. That's even worse.
Yes. QUOTEQUOTE said:Also, I did not say that you are barbaric, but all of this religions are. If you have such complexes and you call yourself a speaker of islam, than yes, you got a problem.
If you are such a huge megalomaniac that you can't take criticism, you're the one with issues.
And if you really believe that Islam is better than Christianity or Judaism...well, let me just tell you, youre wrong, noone is betterQUOTE said:Don't tell me its good what terrorists do.
Partially it is. America's been begging for some ass-whooping for years. I'm not suprised that the Middle East never forgave them for the parties US Troops had on their turf, depleted Uranium shells polution among one of them. I'm including only the US, but European countries did damadge during the Gulf War aswell.That's no reason NOT to pray 5 times a day, those things are unrelated, you can do both.QUOTE said:no matter if in name of god or not, they are terrorists. So are half of world's goverments.
and now go on to hate and praise.QUOTE said:look here, my mum is Jew, my dad Christian, my finance is Muslim and my best friend Buddhist...and we all care a shit about religions or skin colors. thats something, you will never understand, but at least it works here in my part of Europe smile.gif
I'm happy for you, but why are you ragging on someone else? Is it something you're getting off your mum, dad, fiance or friend?
QUOTE
you're religion is the same shit as mine. sorry bro. get over it. There are much more important things in life, how you could make the planet a better palce to live, but for sure not to pray 5 times the day.

QUOTE said:oh, so sweet.
now the orthodox and the muslims help each other.
you know what, Im happy! really! wub.gif If this brings you and the muslim guy more near and you forget your differences, thats just great.
it was kinda cute, how you did it.
my job is done!
if the reality would be like this, that our religions would help each other like you helped him, than the world would be at least a bit a better place.
Because the reality in most arab countries and east-europe looks different, but who knows, maybe you and your muslim friend, can work on a communication and this will make all our world better.
Seeing that I agreed with my "muslim friend" as you put it, I'm clearly UNorthodox. I'm just againts being agressive towards anyone just because he or she believes in something else or doesn't believe at all. I'd defend you if you were in the exact same spot he was, despite the fact that you're an obvious troll. Your happiness is premature, I smirked at your reply rather than expressing any emotional response. I meet people like you on a daily basis, trust me, you're not impressive with your "in-your-face, if you're not an atheist you are an idiot" attitude. You're just close-minded and unable to embrace other people's ideas and beliefes. Just a side note, that's a *bad* thing y'know.
QUOTEOne thing I've noticed is that the media and a lot of liberal elite class are in effect robbing people of religious faith. When I see law suits over prayer or a nativity scene I think to my self there's something there that these people are deathly afraid of. So they beat down religion every chance they get. What's happened is that a lot of people move in herds and if religion isn't cool or is presented as hateful or backward they tend to go a long with what the media says. I don't think these individuals even know what's happening to them and these elitists are basically getting away with the theft of faith.
This.Depravo said:Logic and religion are mutually exclusive. Logic encourages us to question whilst religion demands we blindly accept.
By that logic all of the atheist billboards that have been vandalized and taken down due to complaints are just a result of religious people being deathly afraid of atheism. How can you claim to be persecuted by a society that is overwhelmingly Christian?dickfour said:One thing I've noticed is that the media and a lot of liberal elite class are in effect robbing people of religious faith.

This.
The two cannot go together so if you must be religious you'd have to be a psuedo-Christian, accepting only what you yourself cannot prove. It's like trying to bring science into a Catholic church, its just looked down upon. However when you do fuse the two, you get scientology.
Lolwut? Read up on John Paul 2nd's approach towards science and don't pull out the Middle Ages trump card, it's no longer valid in the 21st century.

Scientology is a religion as much as Christianity is a religion. Where is the huge difference between them?Foxi4 said:By the way, Scientology is a *filthy sect* that deprives its members off their possessions and secludes them from their families, it's not a religion, it's a rip-off for the sheep. Don't even pull it out in a discussion about religion, there's a HUGE difference between a sect and a religion. It might've been "good" in its early stages, but now that you have to "pay to spiritually advance", it's hard not to see where it went wrong.

Churches also take a great deal of money from people and even to this day try to get laws passed to control other people's lives. No one is forcing scientologists to pay the money to further themselves spiritually.Foxi4 said:Oh, not much. Except that reaching higher Operator Thethan Levels requires sufficient monetary deposits (rounds up to 500.000$ to reach Level 5 from what I remember), leaving the sect is incredibly difficult (other operatives go out of their way to stop you from doing so, sometimes even borderline legal stuff) and contact with your non-scientologist relatives is slowly cut short by higher-level Operatives. I've read *alot* about scientology since I was interested in their teachings, but scraping off the sugarcoat revealed a turd underneath it. As General Akbhar would say - "IT'S A TRAP!!!".
In short, religion is free and it does not limit who you're meeting and who you're not meeting with, a sect controls your life.
