I didn't read most of these 4 pages so far, but Islam is responsible for millions of BUDDHIST deaths (in Afghanista, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Thailand more recently etc...) over the millenia, is responsible for millions of CHRISTIAN deaths (during the crusades, in numerous African countries such as Nigeria), is responsible for millions of HINDU deaths (during colonization of India and during India's split with Pakistan and Bangladesh), is responsible for millions of MUSLIM deaths (shiite versus sunni, wahabi verus less extreme, killing of muslim converts to other religions etc...), is responsible for tens of thousands of JEWISH deaths (in Israel, Argentina etc...).....is responsible for tens of thousands of ATHEIST/AGNOSTIC peoples' deaths via indiscriminate terrorism(9/11, 7/7 etc...)...

Only a moron or a muslim would not admit that this is the most violent religion in human history. A bunch of Arabs have spread the religion largely via violence or by attracting societal outcasts

I read this article today saying that the U.S. is testing the machinery and computers that are used to draft people to serve in the armed forced. They (U.S. gov.) say that they are opposed to the draft and that they are not about to reinstate it.....which leaves me wondering: WHY are they testing the system then?
If tomorrow you woke up and found that your country was drafting YOU to go to war, would you go? Would your religion prevent you from serving?

Racism and political correctness are both wrong, counterprogressive and obnoxious. Uptight and ignorant idiots these days, both black and white, cry "racism" so much that they have forgotten what racism means. The irony of it all is that the uptight PC people who cry racism are often the racist ones themselves and not the ones being accused. Racism is hatred of or the belief that a race is inferior to another. Impolitical correctness and racism are NOT the same thing. Many impolitically correct things are banned or accused of being racist when they really aren't.

However, what is also irritating is that there are people that fit the true definition of racism that will call themselves impolitically correct. If they make a statement about innate racial inferiority, they'll defend it by saying "oh I'm just being honest and impolitically correct". Give me a break.

You'd think that a book from a perfect God would also be perfect, without so many errors and confusing statements. You'd think that a perfect God would leave us with a perfect record. If Jesus really did all those things it says he did, why is it that there is no written record about him during the time he was alive? Why were the gospels written so many years later? Why does the bible leave us with more questions than answers? You'd think that a book inspired by a supreme being would be crystal clear.

Goes home to beat his wife and molest his children? Are you aware how often this happens in the real world? Or do you see your holy-man as being a saint-like person who doesn't eat, sh'it, or bleed like the rest of us?

For instance angels appeared in human form to Lot and his family during the time of Sodom, and two angels who appeared as men, and ate with Abraham and his family. If angels can take human form, are demons, fallen angels, also allowed to do this?

Or were certain limitations put on demons after they inhabited the bodies of men to have sex with human women, which produced the Nephilim(who were destroyed after the flood)?

The only regions where religious people go to war seem to have exceedingly high illiteracy rates and no technological form of mass media i.e. no computers. The Dark Ages, the Middle East...places where there is nothing to do but worship God.

They changed from "Negroes" to "Colored People" to "Blacks"and now most popularly to "African-Americans". But all this time NAACP carried the phrase: "Colored People". I think they should change it to "African-N-Asian-Americans" to create racial harmony. Then NAACP becomes NAAANAA. And Sen. Oboma becomes part of it too along with all the Asian-Americans. What do you think?

I once posted a question about smoking pot. Almost everyone called me a loser stoner pothead. I then wondered how many of those people drank alcohol. If you look down on people who smoke pot and you drink alcohol, are you a hypocrite?
