Religion & Spirituality - 15 September 2006

Since most christians regard christianity as a faith based on the concept of LOVE , and since most Christians loath descrimination and religious intolerence and respect human rights and feel regret for the horrendous actions of the colonial powers of the past. Then it would be hard to wage a crusade against muslim nation without waging an emotional/religious campaign to change the public opinion of chirstians . Isn't it a campign of hate similar to the campaigns launched by the Nazis against the Jews? Isn't the only purpose of such attempts is to provoke the muslims as much as possible, then record their reactions and display it in the media in a way that depicts them as animals worthy of being slain by christian forces in countries like Iraq, iran, etc?

PLEASE NO JESUS-FREAK RESPONSES...& I'm not looking for answers that can't be substantiated.
All these 'renditions' of artist's showing what THEY think Jesus looks like...are just that: "Renditions"...no one ever painted his portrait, or even sketched his portrait, there were no cameras. I think if we really saw him today, he'd be "profiled" and suspected as a terrorist in some venues. Jesus was of Arab lineage and had to have been very dark-skinned. But no one talks about that...or draws him that way...& who knows for sure? no one. They're aren't even any writings describing him---& I think it's blasphemy to try.

Does anyone else feel that the muslims who choose to miscontrue the Pope's comments have simply served to illustrate his point?

Are there any muslims out there who are embarrassed by this reaction?

PS I'm not meaning any offence by this - I am simply curious as to how the community feels

After all, he was a boy Nazi follower, but he stated he hated such association. His recent comments about Islam has further fuelled religious hatred and conflict. He’s even implied that Christianity is the only religion that’s correct, everything else is noise.

Why do you believe that the Pope is correct?

I understand why Muslims are upset, but why do you really concern yourself with the Pope if you do not approve of him or respect him?

The pope quoted a writer that wrote about a person in the 1500's that said Muhammad spread the word of evil. But now the islamic community is rioting. Don't they see that the fury against the pope proves his point? I'm an Atheist, so I think the pope is full of shiat, but the fact that the islamics are rioting against him just proves his point...

Fifty percent of those who graduated high school say evolution should be taught, while 75 percent with college degrees believe it should. The chasm widens when comparing those with a grade-school education — 39 percent support the teaching of evolution — to those with post-college graduate degrees — 86 percent.

Take the recent comments by the Pope, rightly or wrongly, he made them. Everyone who watched the news saw masses of Islamic followers responding in a volatile violent manner, burning effigy’s of the Pope.

Is Yahoo Answers a great substitute for physical violence? In other words, is a Holy War of words better than a killing and murderous Holy War of innocent human life?

how can anyone "choose" to convert from one religion or sect to another? that is a rational decision among options and therefore not an act of faith!

is that not a dilemma?

Hi, im christian, and i have met amazing muslim people throughout my ears, i dont understand why people criticize them so much. I know a lot of christians who converted to islam because the religion is so true and powerful. There are goods in bads in everyone. There are a lot of christian terrorists who kill people all the time. Us christians are the most rude and racist in the world. NOT ALL MUSLIMS ARE BAD. There are some and some aren't. Get out of your house and stop watching tv, and look around. Why are christians of their own choice converting to islam? Most muslim people living here in the US are very tolerant due to all thats been happening. I know us christian people are to ignorant to tolerate anything thrown at us. You people need to stop listening to the media and get your *** of the couch and see the real world in a real perspective.

I am getting tired of every question being on the pope... excluding this one.

I am muslim, i haven't heard the complete thing of what he said, to tell you the truth i could care less what he says. God will judge him for what he says. Who knows maybe years from now he will be considered an anitpope like benedict 13.

Seriously can everyone get over the pope.

Clearly when the top dog, or boss, or politician, or leader of any organised (English spelling) makes an significant error of judgement, prudence would dictate that standing down is the appropriate action to take.

Although the Pope’s recent action was nothing more than to make a quote from history, commonsense and logic would dictate that he made a significant error of judgement in a volatile world fuelled by religious hatred.

Why not apologise and stand down, in the interests of world stability and peace?

Before the faithful flock get their knickers in a twist and blow a gasket answering this question consider the following. Jesus was a man (hypothetically he may have been a god or demigod too) but christians executed many people as heretics for claiming he was not a man.Therfore Christians accept Jesus as a man. A man is a living organism and all living organisms are by definition either animals, plants, fungi or bacteria. Unless you want to argue that the hominid Jesus was a fungus, bacterium or plant you would have to agree he was an animal. All living beings have mutations (variations) in their genes hence they are by definition mutants. It is through these mutations that DNA identifications in Criminology etc are made. Therfore the Jesus man was a mutant animal (and so are you!) agreed? No Bible quotes please but you can insult or threaten me as I find it amusing :)
