Can someone find the VERY FIRST questions on Yahoo "Religion and Spirituality" section to see who was the first to throw a stone at the other?
I mean who was the first to use foul language and mock the other and call the person an idiot for what they are?

Do you really think these skirmishes started only after Yahoo Answers came around? I doesn't matter who was first here. There's still a huge history. And honestly, it doesn't really matter who was the first ever, either.

I try to remember to be more "spiritual" than "religious. To me being spiritual is walking in love for God and others. God is Spirit - God is Love, And summed up we are to love the Lord our God with all of our heart, with all our mind, and with all of our strength, and to love our neighbor as ourself.
Religion as in rituals, traditions, laws, etc. has valuable importance -
When Not Abused.
But like the Pharisees that Jesus dealt with and teaches us to be aware -
That a spiritual life of love for God and love for people -
If we are not careful - Can and Will turn any one of us into a Pharisee -Dealing in and living our lives in legalism which puts one in bondage -
which is the opposite of liberty and being set free to love God and people..
Real religion, the kind that passes muster before God the Father, is this: Reach out to the homeless and loveless in their plight, and guard against corruption from the godless world.
To love the Lord with all of your heart, mind and strength is like wise -
"Then the righteous will answer Him, "Lord, when did we
see You a stranger and invite You in, or needing clothes and clothe You?
When did we see You sick or in prison and go to visit You?" The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these , you did for Me."
(read all of Matthew chapter 25)

I have no idea where it began- but I know one thing- it is not ending with you. Instead of trying to point fingers why do we just start treating others with respect instead.

No matter which one started it, we're all individual. Don't let one rotten egg spoil the bunch...

you want everyone on here to get MORE immature "he started it!"...."no, she did!". it doesn't matter. that's kind of a dead issue.

If you want to know why don't you look instead of asking other people to do the work for you.

It doesn't matter who started it.
It's started. The past is the past. This is the now. We should resolve it.
