right on!

I believe... your choice... Not gonna try to convert anybody ...but think about it

Deist, what is the majority religion in Europe. I am just curious.

Whats interesting is that Islam is, IIRC, the fastest growing religion... if it continues, its gonna overtake christianity. I wonder what ppl are gonna say then.

If the people who truely follow it, nothing much. It is a peaceful religion.

If it's the fundamentalists like we've been seeing... the ever elusive terrorists...

I'll be hiding out in the woods. I really don't want to see a relaps into the burning times or anything remotely like that.

You can believe in what you do. No one will take that away from you. Some may try, but if you hold stead fast, then they won't succeed.

I'm glad you won't try to be another who brazingly will force it down our throats. and I've thought about it many years ago, and thanks to the actions of some people here, will never again. I'm very happy with what I believe in.

Can't argue with sciance with religion. And religion can't exactly give all the answers.

Hmm, how do I know it's not some demon decieving me? I've already explained that.

Why do you put my name to ANY religion? How many times do I have to explain...just say it's Judeo-Catholic, so you don't have to be so confused. It's not about the RELIGION, it's about GOD.

SilverCougar, and Darkwind,

I've said it before, I don't care what you believe it's your choice, by all means, live by it, die by it.

And why does it matter which religion is the majority, exactly? People's faith declining has more to do with the way religion is being run not a question of whether God exists or not.

Calling me dumb among other things does kinda imply you do care

Well, you're right, I do care, I care because one day you're gonna regret it.

And I'm not being a 'Bible-basher', personally, they irritate me because they usually don't know what they're talking about in the first place. But this is like a heroin addiction, you do it, you enjoy it, you don't foresee any consequences, but inevitably, when it rots the body and destroys 90% of your brain cells, you look back on it and ask yourself WHY.

Exactly a fairy tale.

what does it matter what did or didnt happen years ago???
Shouldnt we be living for today and not in the past???

Blessed Be

Now you can see why we're irritated by you.

I think the point she's trying to get across is that racism based on colour and religion and race is just RETARDED!! We shouldn't hate each other so much. We should be more open to other cultures and theologies.

Racism has nothing to do with religion. It has to do with race hence the rac part of racism. And if you read the posts in this thread she is certainly not trying to be open to other cultures and theologies. She clearly has something against science and believes she is right and everyone else is wrong.
And since you are trying to be so politically correct Black Ops, don't you think you are discriminating against mentally handicapped people when you say something is "retarded"? Besides that welcome to the forum!

hmmmm.... I didn't pick up on that.... but I used retarded in a different context.... why did you think I meant mentally handicapped people? ( it's all about word association). Thanks for the welcome though!

As near as I can find and according to the English, Scottish, German, Greek and Italian friends that I correspond with and talk with - (these are not religions, but are belief systems) Agnostics and Atheists are in the majority with Christianity and Islam following. We usually run 15 to 20 years behind Europe, so it is just starting here. By 2015, our demographics will probably be similar, with a lot of people wondering why they followed whatever religion they followed before.

Your right, we should be living for today and not in the past...... hell, people 2000 years ago would have worshipped a toaster when it went POP.

Thanks Deist. Things change; one of the great beauties of the Universe.

Black Ops said it right. This post was about why RACISM has NO MERIT and is just DUMB.

And, like Koe you yourself said RELIGION is a DIFFERENT issue.
