Oh, I'm not offended because somebody thinks I'm wrong. I'm just tired of all the (insert religion/faith here)...EXPOSED links posted on here.

Evilest_Wendy, I've never once tried to convert someone to my faith. My friends and neighbors all know who and what I am. If they are interested, they'll come to me and I'll lend them a book or two. But it's is up to them to pursue it further. My faith isn't about convincing people to believe what I believe.

We all will come to this stage when people have the knowledge of their own faith that their own religion does not teach them to hate any other religion to be righteous.

False religion should be exposed, it can and has led others into error and death.
Would it be a much better place if we allowed a religion that goes angainst the NATURAL LAW?
According to St. Thomas, the natural law is "nothing else than the rational creature's participation in the eternal law".The eternal law is God's wisdom, inasmuch as it is the directive norm of all movement and action.
If there was a religion that required a newborn baby to be sprinkled with magic baby powder at 12 noon and sacrificed with an axe, would the world be a much better place because we let them live their lives and we lived ours?
What would you do if someday these "religious" people came after a new born baby that you knew, possibly a niece/nephew, brother/sister or even your own baby?
Would you let them LIVE THEIR FAITH as we want to LIVE OUR FAITH?

Good girl for asking that question.
We all have faith in god some how.
We are all from god,what color does'nt mader,love is the answer.
Just wish every one would see it that way.
I wish thing's would be the way they were yr's ago,when people would really help one other.
Not the way it is now,they see some one that need's help on the road,they just pass them by with no help,sad,huh?
But I don't think any one will or could change it now the way thing's are now day's,sad sad.
Yes it would be a better place if all people would just stop the fighting and love one other or atleast see a person for who they are,a person from god.
Not every one is bad,there is alot of good people in the world,just have a hard time finding them,huh?
I think every one is crying out in there own way and wishing it would stop to.
But I don't think it will,so sad.
All I can say, is GOD HELP US ALL.
Take care Sharon.

No. The world will be a better place to live in if we do not get offended if someone believed we are wrong. We can just thank them for being so concerned about us.

A reserved Yes. Though I'll say that if your faith can't withstand a little exposing, then your faith is pretty weak.
We should definitely all stop trying to KILL people who have a different faith than ours...

Low self-esteem has to see the value of their pathetic lives through the eyes of others. They can't help it.
Developing healthy self esteem is the very first step, and can not be achieved unless one is free to live or die by the consequences of their own actions.
A Man is a means to his own ends.

It would be nice if the people of our world had more acceptance in thier hearts and could allow other's to live thier lives and worship thier ways without judgement and bitterment. We all need to do our part to stop the hate in this world from consuming us.

AMEN
I try to live my life giving glory to God.
God has blessed me and my family so much. He has giving everyone gifts (talents) and I believe when we use our god giving talents we glorify him. It is possible to live our faith, and tell others about Jesus. With out trying to expose anyone.
God bless in the name of Jesus

Yes, It would be better if we could all just be tolerant.
I wish no one would have spoken out about Hitler, he was just living his faith.

It sure would. Unfortunately, we are supposed to go into all the world and preach the gospel, and sometimes we have to preach it to those who are off base in their core beliefs.
We are not supposed to argue. Jesus never argued.
