Penistone999   10 #457 Posted January 9, 2015 ********. Why should some beady weirdy bloke walk down from a mountain and start telling people what to do? Sounds like some megalomaniac nutter to me. Religion...just stop, please, then we can all get on with life.  Not very often i agree with you ,but you have hit the nail on the head, 100% spot on.

ronthenekred   10 #458 Posted January 9, 2015 . The bottom line is that every Muslim in the world would rather everyone else respected and followed their beliefs.  That's the bottom line of most theists. Not sure why you singled out one religion.

taxman   12 #459 Posted January 9, 2015 That's the bottom line of most theists. Not sure why you singled out one religion.  At least Hindus have a whole range of gods and goddesses you can follow, or not, depending on how you feel. No BIG BOOK, no GOD. Just a sort of pick and choose religion, turtles, monkeys, elephants, Shiva etc bit of a laugh really..no need for dressing up in black and getting all mardy.

Delayed   466 #462 Posted January 9, 2015 Anyone who professes a religion of any kind is being violent. This is because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you separate yourself in this way it breeds violence.  No, you are wrong.  I'm not violent in any way. I've never raised my hand to anyone in my life and have no intention to despite the fact I'm a Christian. Yes, I'm sure there are extremist Christian's out there but I consider myself a Christian and I'm in no way violent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Bonzo77   13 #465 Posted January 9, 2015 Yes and no my friend. Most people think the world would be a better place if everyone else shared their world view.  I know very few Muslims, none of them want everyone to be a Muslim. None of them support these acts of violence and one of them is now an Atheist. Therefore, what Barry said, in my eyes, is a load of dog muck.

Most of us have that "safety cut out" that stops us from going over the edge. Sadly there are individuals on this forum who's lack of thought for others seems to provoke negative reactions. My advice is don't bite back! One of the first things I was taught was the "Sticks and stones " rhyme as a kid, its stood me in good stead over the years. Their opinions are exactly that.....theirs!
