Am I correct in thinking that you are saying we should condemn all religion because some religious people are assh0les?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think we need to be truthful in regards to them and not try to sugarcoat things. None are based on any factual evidence and all contain potetially harmful material which we need to be honest about. Trying to ignore this will just lead to further problems rather than solve them.
The left are often quite critical of Christianity, yet tend to ignore the damage caused by other, non-Western religions, partly because they don't won't to appear racist. This sort of mentality isn't going to solve anything.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hold on, firstly it's people not religion that are the problem, secondly there are some evidence to show some events did really happen. Thirdly while currently a lot of problems don't seem to be from the western region, are we forgetting a lot of christian wars. I mean dear I say Hitler.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
you can't seem to make your mind up, but you like debate though yeah??
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Offer up some debate and we'll see, it'd make a nice change.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
you've already got enough going on, when you come out with classics like 'i see no harm in any religion at all' how can I even begin to take you seriously it is the oldest and greatest platform for all prejudice.

Sorry Sniper, but that is a lot of nonsense. I see no harm in any religion at all, I do see harm in some people - and some of those people are religious. That's it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I see no harm in any religion at all** WOW
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Go on then KYB, now's your chance. Why is religion itself a problem? Why is the worship of some deity a problem rather than the abuse by other people of that worship, a problem? What actual harm does religion itself do?

Simply not true. Very few, if any, wars are primarily fought on the basis of religion. Religion is often used to "rally the troops", but it is pretty much never the actualy 'cause' of the war - it's just not true. Religion is as much to blame as the different colour uniforms the combatents wear.
Would you blame the flag for a battle, or the bloke waving it?

I think you'll find, yes it creates an ideology and everyone has theirs (whether or not you have a religion) but it's not the cause is people are. Look at the current situation, you will find religious text that say one thing but us humans can take it wrong. Or should I say people use it, so they take a snippet out and use it against weak minded people with social issue. That is not religion that is people deliberately using it to their advantage. Its like the old days with VHS. It would say this movie is terrific from a reviewer while the actual review was this movie if terrific if you want to get bored out of your skull.

I would blame the bloke waving the flag but religion isn't the flag it is the bloke and his actions that is the religion, spreading hatred and division in the name of prejudice, I believe something different to you therefore I want everyone to believe what I believe and if you don't there will be war............................

I don’t think Hitler was motivated by Christianity. I think he was a theist but his comments would range from religious fundamentalism to militant Darwinist. Hitler’s religious beliefs were quite muddled generally.
I think the issue with the Islamists is that they appear to be very much motivated by their religious beliefs. I mean, you just have to listen to what they say as they make their intentions quite clear.
I don’t actually think religion is the only problem and I actually think much good has come from religion - but by ignoring the bad aspects, you are also ignoring the truth.
Religion can be a good thing to a sensible person. Millions of people take solace from it daily and don't allow it dictate their lives

This is the problem ignorance. Islamist extremism has nothing to do with Islam. This is the whole issue, with people saying lets use the Muslim community to solve this. You cannot. It has nothing to do with the actual religion. They have just hijacked it and using it against one another. Islamist extremist views are not of that from Islam, in which case would you blame the religion or the person Hijacking it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think there are aspects of all religion that are harmful. I’m not one of those militant atheists and I’ve got many religious friends. However, I see practices which stem from religious teaching that I consider dangerous. These might not be necessarily violent, but can have potentially unpleasant effect on individuals or on society.
I’m actually willing to give religion credit at times when I feel it has helped people, but also willing to critique it when I feel it has damaged them.

No they're not and you're arrogant to think that, millions of people take the fundamental message of a religious text and try use this to be better people.
I look at someone like my Mother, who is a very religious person, she goes to mass daily since she retired and it is a social occasion for her too, she gets to see people daily, attend social events through the church and offers so many people like her the chance to interact on a daily basis, some people who she goes to mass with don't have many people in their lives, the church has always offered them this social connection.
None of these people are crazy Catholics who go around bombing abortion clinics or picketing gay weddings.
So yeah like I said you're arrogant and very very naive to think like you do
Totally agree and i think you'll find that is common among-st all religions

Your dear Mother could do all that and more WITHOUT belief in a fairy or God.
Also, if you NEED God for morality then you're not really a nice person.
You do not have to believe in the paranormal to be a better person.
God is nothing....he doesn't deserve credit.

So ignorant, she was born and raised in a Catholic community and has always had God as part of her life, you not believing in god doesn't make everyone who does so sort of fool.
You just cannot understand what religion does for a sane person who believes in it because you;re too narrow minded to view it any other way, dare I say you're not being very liberal here
A believer doesn't need God to be moral what they do is take the fundamental teachings of their chosen text, love, peace, love they neighbour etc. and try to apply these teachings to their everyday lives.
It is the EXACT same thing as you reading an aethiests teachings on morality and applying these to your life.

So ignorant, she was born and raised in a Catholic community and has always had God as part of her life, you not believing in god doesn't make everyone who does so sort of fool.
You just cannot understand what religion does for a sane person who believes in it because you;re too narrow minded to view it any other way, dare I say you're not being very liberal here
A believer doesn't need God to be moral what they do is take the fundamental teachings of their chosen text, love, peace, love they neighbour etc. and try to apply these teachings to their everyday lives.
It is the EXACT same thing as you reading an aethiests teachings on morality and applying these to your life.
