Harkoliar- it was a nice try! I understood the point! I surely don't talk to God as much as I should or could. Thanks for posting!
This is my point. This is not about religion, this is about human nature. People are killing each other in the name of their gods. What god commands that? [/QUOTE]No god 'commands' that. It is simply an excuse to kill other people, a manipulation of religion to 'allow' the killing, almost like the manipulation churches used (and some still use) about submitting to it. It is a side effect of free will, the ability to make any decision, no matter what it is. It is not God's will but a man-made thing. [/QUOTE]Yes the question was rhetorical . You have it there though, no god does command it, man does.
