Answer 1

I come on here cause I enjoy learning about other religions and defending my own. People are obsessed with bashing other religions because whatever is different is wrong.

If only people realized they are just robots programmed by our society to stop all different things.

Answer 2

rhetoric

well thanks to our beliefs, we do things based upon them

see here what happened at the hands of 'christian deutch'

Henry Hudson sailed up the Hudson River in 1609-10. By 1624 the first colonists had arrived. It took only nine years for the first smallpox epidemic to hit, between 1633-35. Since the Lenape people, like all Native Americans, had no immunity to European diseases, these epidemics proved fatal. Although there are no statistics for this epidemic, it is safe to assume that a large number of Lenape people died from this first epidemic. It was common for epidemics to eliminate entire villages. This was the first in a long series of events that would deplete the numbers of the Lenape.

In 1643 the Mohawks (part of the Iroquois Confederation) made a peace treaty with the Dutch and shortly thereafter attacked a band of Wappingers Indians. When this group fled to a Dutch shelter at Pavonia, they were executed. This atrocity, often referred to as the Pavonia Massacre, resulted in the deaths of 80 men, women, and children. After they were beheaded, the Dutch soldiers responsible for their deaths played kickball with the severed heads.

In retaliation for this brutal attack, the Wappingers joined with the Mahicans in what is now called Governor Keifts’ War (since he was Governor of New Amsterdam when the Pavonia Massacre occurred). Although the Wappingers and Mahicans enjoyed a victory in this war, which took place between 1643-45, they nonetheless lost men, which further depleted their population.

Answer 3

Because they do not have a firm belief in their own religion. All religions tell us to respect others. Muslims are told to respect the "people of the book: This refers to Christians and Jews. Christians are told to treat others as they want to be treated. If everyone followed these guidelines there would be a lot less hatred in the world

Answer 4

There will always be tensions between the legalistic and or science and the dogma of the church. These things are usually nonessential and prove nothing of any real value. If you are Christian, remain in Faith and God Bless.

Answer 5

Yahoo answers is the place to talk about everything. I don't like to bash anyone; just telling the truth. Sometimes the truth can hurt but it is not meant to bash anyone. If that offends you, you should stay away from the religious section yourself. It is you who is bashing not others. Please don't bash me for being truthful. Thank you for your question.

Answer 6

All religions (and irreligions) need to get bashed. People who can't deal with getting bashed should stay home and be blissfully content with the inadequacy of their unchallenged beliefs.
