this is what happens when let religion into politics, and when you protect it from well deserved criticism.

Not all religions are created equal.

Honestly, get a clue.

Good point Luka.

bruce fee

so you're saying afghan islam is not equal to fake orthodox christian?

shlammed

I'm a Roman Catholic, not an Orthodox. And as a Roman Catholic, I believe that my religion is the one and only true religion.

Does that answer your question?

Catholics don't believe in more than one God. I thought you would have already known this.

shlammed

^^^ and I by no means mean to offend people of other religions with that statement nor do I discriminate against people of other beliefs.

bruce fee

so basically you think everyone else is wasting their time and doing it wrong.

yes?

shlammed

No Bruce, I'm a Catholic because Catholics believe that every religion is correct and that Jesus Christ is only one of 1000 saviours of this world.

What a stupid question.

bruce fee

i'm 99% sure you're catholic because your parents are catholic and not because you gave it some thought and learned about other religions, and i don't even know you!

just want to make sure i understand, you think all of islam is wasting their time and doing it wrong.

that's cool with me.

#1 I've taken world religion courses before
#2 If I have complete faith in my own religion, why would I even think of straying?
#3 If I am Catholic because of my parents, all that means is that they raised me properly in the eyes of God.

4. world religions class teaches you as much about religion as a popular science magazine makes you a scientist.

lots of people get bent out of shape when talking about religion, same with politics.

Bruce Fee is prolly just bored at work or something. Although he plays devils advocate I don't really think he means any harm....he just likes to stir the pot.

If you were to ask one of the more observant Orthodox Jews, they would say that your parents raised you up to be just like them - an idolater in a false faith.
