Re: Remember that Dutch comic about Mohamad?
In my opinion for these kind of discussions to work people need to spend less time stating what they believe in and more time telling why they believe in something and why it's right for them.
In other words; share a little of yourself. This is the kind of discussions which can only work in a "sitting at the fireside with a good friend, enjoying a good drink." kind of mood. Less soapbox and more open heart.

Of course, religious organizations can suffer from the same pathologies as any other organization or group; group mentality, stagnation, corruption, sanctimonousness etc.

Others, however, claims various forms of religious experiences for their faith. This alone doesn't makes whatever they believe in true, but it help to explains why people believe. After all, no one is going around thinking "there's absolutely no evidence for this but what the heck, I'll believe it anyway.

And as far as outlawing goes, Catholicism was outlawed in England for about 100 years, if you remember Also, Chewbacca, like Lav said, though he could've put it a bit nicer, if you don't like the thread, simply leave it to itself. It's not going to hunt you down

Re: Remember that Dutch comic about Mohamad?
He probably would have a easier time staying if you guys would stop calling out to him.

If it means what I think it means, then I'm not trying to be brash or anything, my simple point was when you come in to a thread and state that you don't think it should be allowed, then it's obviously not your cup of tea. But no-ones forcing him in to it. I'm sorry if I came off rude. I'd love to hear Chewy's thoughts on the matter but he said he didn't want to share so I'm not pushing him on it. Once again, apologies and I didn't mean to be rude.

Re: Remember that Dutch comic about Mohamad?
You didn't come off rude at all.
Luvian, what does "calling" out mean? No-one has done anything to Chewbacca, except give him the friendly advice that if he doesnt want to be part of this topic, which he has stated it seems, then he should leave. The rest of us shouldn't have to have a topic closed, because he doesnt want to be in it. Think you have your wires crossed Luvian.

Is it really a big deal to believe/not to believe in a god? I mean come on, if I was borned 2000 years ago and started preaching to everybody that an angel appeared in front of me and want me to save humanity by preaching the god's divine messages. 2000 years later, half of the world's population would believe in Kakeroism. |
