I know this is none of my business, but it bugs me sometimes when I see an athiest, agnostic or (very obviously) non-religious person wear a cross.

If that person doesn't believe in the Holy Trinity, why wear it's signature? Why not a square or a triangle instead?

In movies and occasionaly in real life I see "gentlemen" kiss ladies on the hand. Where exactly on the hand? Is it above the knuckles?

In recent years the Inquisition has been subject to greater investigation. In preparation for the Jubilee in 2000, Pope John Paul II wanted to find out just what happened during the time of the Inquisition's (the institution's) existence. In 1998 the Vatican opened the archives of the Holy Office (the modern successor to the Inquisition) to a team of 30 scholars from around the world. Now at last the scholars have made their report, an 800-page tome that was unveiled at a press conference in Rome on Tuesday. Its most startling conclusion is that the Inquisition was not so bad after all. Torture was rare and only about 1 percent of those brought before the Spanish Inquisition were actually executed. As one headline read "Vatican Downsizes Inquisition."

The amazed gasps and cynical sneers that have greeted this report are just further evidence of the lamentable gulf that exists between professional historians and the general public.

People sometimes justify their obsession with cleanliness on religous grounds; but true religion is not concerned with outward purity.

Why is it that most of Africa still consists of a bunch of savages running around with war paint on their faces throwing spears at eachother and carrying baskets on their heads with bones through their noses. Are the African people just too lazy to try to convert to civilization?

I'm NOT Christian, but I'm pretty sure if the Christians are right, Jesus wouldn't have slapped his name on a product and made millions from it. Ya'll bought that crap hook,line and sinker. Shameful.

A true love of God must begin with a delight in his holiness, and not with a delight in any other attribute; for no other attribute is truly lovely without this.
