Religion & Spirituality - 5 October 2006

It seems that the slightest little comment about anything to do with the Muslim religion, results in protests and public condemnation. Why are they so much more volatile than any other religions? Jews, Sikh, Hindi, Buddhists, Catholics, none of them behave like this. Is there some historical reason?

People think that they can convert other people to their religion by killing others.
People from every religion do that, christians, muslims and every single one.
In my opinion that is wrong because God told people to show love to one another.

Why do people then think that killing others will make other people belive in their god?

The Christians on this site are always complaining about being hated by people. This is the solution.

What is it with businesses (especially hotels) these days they advertise some unchallenging role as manager of something and then when you go for the interview you find out their organisation hierarchy is completely different? Why do they waste the time of the applicants?

Can two conflicting statements both be true? Can light and darkness (litterally) exist in the same place?

Though I was raised Catholic, I long ago dispensed with beliving in Jesus as God and then God altogether, but as a student of both history and politics, I admire the campaign concept. The God of the Old Testament is very much a heavy-handed overlord type who threatened believers into behaving. But the Jesus figure is a clever turn because it offers a figure that humans can relate to and emulate. The basic doctrine says, "I am God, but I am also you. If you act like me, you can strive to become a god-man also". Putting aside whether you believe in it (if you're atheist, I assume you don't), do you admire the sales ptich?

I will respectfully ask for no hateful rhetoric from Christians. I am trying to ask a secular question about a religious idea. I will likely get it anyway, but I had to ask...

As true LORD GOD TODD rote His image on them like they His biatches. Cause Todd also called Larry but for stupid people like Jerry's kids the italian brain isn't capable of a 26 letter alphabet so i spell it larri or lari or lare so the retards can understand.

a form of LARRY TODD S.'s name is over most of you as the mark of Gods ownership. But you are now in open rebellion so wake up the loyalists and terrorists too cause if God don't sleep neither do you.

The Bible, Qur'an, and other classical documents are full of contradictions and factual errors. They were written by human beings in ancient civilizations, expressing the scientific and moral speculations of their day. They do not convey the eternal word of God, but rather the yearnings of ancient tribes based on oral legends and received doctrines; as such, they are hardly relevant to all cultures and times. The Old and New Testaments are not accurate accounts of historical events. The reliability of the Old Testament is highly questionable in the events and personages it depicts; Moses, Abraham, Joseph, etc. are largely uncorroborated by historical evidence. As for the New Testament, scholarship has shown that none of its authors knew Jesus directly. The four Gospels were not written by eyewitnesses but are products of oral tradition and hearsay. There is but flimsy and contradictory evidence for the virgin birth, the healings of Jesus, and the Resurrection.

What do you think of the point he made about repression leading to objectionable behavior, using religious fundamentalists and conservatives as examples? Do you think repressing ones true self in the name of whatever will come back to bite you in the a55, so to speak?

I think God is egotistical and controlling. I do not like the feeling of being threatened that if I don't accept God I will go to hell.

judges by your religious affiliation and not by your deeds? That kind of god seems unkind and overly judgemental. That is why I as an Atheist see no real incentive to join any religion. The only one that comes close to judgement by character is Buddhism.

So anyways, to the real question, why would you want to spend your time in heaven with a god like that?
