you see i think certainty of belief, leads to intolerance and sensitivity to any criticism. because if youre convinced your right, you dont seriously listen to any other view....because whats the point..youre certain they wont convince you.
now in my little quest to find out more about islam...i think the nub of it for me is to find out what is it about the faith of islam that has caused these people to become so adamant.
for me it cant be their holy book, because A: i know that ALL religions without exception are the creation of human minds B: ive read some of the koran, and although it is less boring than the bible, nothing in it struck me as something that was so sublime it could have come from the mind of god.
so what is the reason for this adamant faith? this is what i would like answers on.
could it be something to do with the fact that if you have your religion set up in such a way that law of the land, the politics, the media, ie everything is expected to defer to it,
