religion cannot bring peace to the world, especially when the laws of the land comes from religion. we know that we need this earth to live, and so when we start making the laws to protect the earth, when we start making a living off of living instead of destruction, then and only then will we begin to have peace. Proffit from destruction = evil in any religion. example--- we know cigarette butts are harmfull to the environment , filters make it easy to smoke. for the sake of our unalienable right to life, forget the extra tax, stop permitting the filters to be put on the cigarettes.

Not necessarily. While religion teaches us humanity and peace, some opportunists use it too divide people by trying to establish the superiority of their own religion over others. Such fundamentalist traits are common in Islam and Christianity.

No - just in an individual's mind. More wars have been fought over religion throughout history, more atrocities have been committed in the name of relgion than for any other reason. Doesn't sound a whole lot like peace to me.

Religion like everything else in this world has its merits and demerits. Religion can be practiced by an individual to strengthen his soul and preserve his culture. But religion should not be forced on others. Hurting people on the name of religion is to disrespect your religion and GOD!

The Bible isn't a rip-off, that is extremely an excellent instructor of ways existence fairly is right here in the international. you purely like the numerous others think of they comprehend the bible, and then declare and blame GOD for strikes HE had not something to do with. devil had dedicated the heinous acts, in GOD'S call. It became GOD who got here at the back of devil and wiped sparkling up his messes, comforting people, yet yet people don't have the have faith in HIM as they might desire to, and proceed to stroll the skinny line in human nature. devil has informed GOD thousands and thousands of years in the past, that he might smash the very element GOD enjoyed the main, it fairly is HIS advent. look all over the area, and see what's taking place and has been taking place because of the fact the commencing up of time. the detest, the starvation, the homeless, politics, company it fairly is corrupted, the class of people are segregated, and whilst issues go incorrect, they blame GOD. the people of the earth is a lost people, who declare to be attentive to each thing, yet yet they don't be attentive to that they are governed by technique of devil. How unhappy... you're actually not as smart as you think of you're. I pray that as quickly as you die, and meet Christ to study your existence, you do not experience in charge or shame for what you have suggested, or the way you think, considering that's what happens. I pray you get smart, and until now you talk lower back with regards to the way you do not have self assurance in GOD, or how evil he's, which you enable HIM to coach you in any different case. seek for GOD for your self, set up a relationship with HIM, and after HE properly-knownshows Himself and teaches you, then desperate no remember if or not he's actual. GOD Bless!

look around, what do you think?
Judaism (or perhaps Israeli nationalism, and Jewish supremacy) seems to be fueling most wars right now, but Christianity has contributed it's fair share. Hinduism, has started some internal conflicts, and Islam may be responsible for some violence (though much less than most would have you believe)

only if it allows for their followers to be accepting of other religions -- which most religions do not.
i am of the belief that its all the same GOD -- God just comes in different forms to different peoples of the world.
too bad we all can't get along
i like Mother Theresa's philosophy - she didn't care if someone was catholic or hindu or whatever. she preached that whatever you are, be the best that you can be at it.
