How does your religion view porn, war, new technology, and other religions?

Answer 1

I'm agnostic, so there is no set way we view things (except questioning the existence of god). So I'm free to think what I want to about things instead of religion telling me what to think.

Answer 2

My religion, paganism, views sex as a natural thing to do. As far as porn, I'm guessing the opinion varies person to person....but there is nothing against it. New technology....nothing against it, though nothing for it either. Other religions.....there is a rule that states: if it harm none, do what you will. Pagans hold that true for everyone, which means they don't care what religion people are as long as they aren't harming anyone. Because of that rule war is usually not supported. But that depends on the person, and the war.

Answer 3

As a Latter-Day Saint, we believe porn is of the Devil and anyone who views it should strive to get away from this evil. It destroys homes, ruin relationships and families.

War is sad indeed, those who start the wars will have the death of everyone who dies in that war on their head come judgement day.

We look forward to new technology, we are excited to see what God inspires men to create, we believe that all technology can be used for the benefit and improvement of man.

Articles of Faith 1:11, "We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."

Answer 4

Porn: forbidden and a waste of time, should be kept private b/t couple, not for the world to see
War: unnecessary unless purely in self defense (which means for real in self defense, not using that excuse as a facade)
New Tech: Essential for the advancement of civilization
Other Religions: misguided, but not worthless or below the 'guided', as even non-believers have a chance in attaining eternal Heaven while even some believers will be damned in Hellfire, and we are not to judge, God's job, not ours

Answer 5

Porn ~ Nothing wrong with it, as long as everyone involved is a consenting adult.

War ~ Sad and horrible.

New technology ~ Fun! Bring on the Wii!

Other Religions ~ There is room for everyone. Believe whatever you want, it's fine with me.

Answer 6

It's all good as long as it is Christian porn, Christian technology, and oh....there isn't any other religion besides Christianity that will get you to heaven. Sorry man, it's an exclusive club.

Answer 7

-Porn is ok as long as it does not include children.
-War is ok when it is justified but that hasn't been lately. I fail to see how faking WMDs is justification.
-New Technology is awesome, without new advancements in science and medicine we will revert back to the stone ages.
-Anyone should be able to practice any belief system they feel is right for them.

Answer 8

Islam permits fighting in self-defense, in defense of one's faith, or on the part of those whose basic rights have been violated. It lays down strict rules of combat that include prohibitions against harming civilians and against destroying crops, trees, and livestock. As Muslims see it, injustice would be triumphant in the world if good people were not prepared to fight for a righteous cause.

God says in the Qur'an: "Permission (to defend) has been granted to those who are being fought against; that they have been oppressed. Verily, God has the power to help them. Those who were unjustly expelled from their homes for no other reason than their saying: 'God is our Lord.' If God were not to repel some human beings through others, monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques, wherein the name of God is mentioned, would have certainly been destroyed. God will definably help those who will help Him. Verily, God is Immensely Strong, Mighty." (Qur'an 22:39-40)

War is the last resort, and is subject to the rigorous conditions laid down by the sacred law. The often misunderstood and overused term jihad literally means "struggle" and not "holy war" (a term not found anywhere in the Qur'an). Jihad, as Islamic concept, can be on a personal level - inner struggle against evil within oneself; struggle for decency and goodness on the social level; and struggle on the battlefield, if and when necessary.

Answer 9

Nothing wrong with porn.
Wars barely solve anything.
New technology is cool, but can render people mindless.
Other religions are their followers' business.

Answer 10

I'm an atheist because I'm able to form my own opinions about those things.
