You have just replaced it with global warming evangelism. Grin

Remember itsazoo.tv? The monkey character who was addicted to video games, in the episode in which the test for the house was to not get into their addiction, turned to television evangelists as a substitute...

So what are you saying Grap. Those cartoons are your source of information on Climate Change. Do you and bystander share the Popcorn? Let me guess. He likes more butter so it slips in easily

I'm not into religion but I can sympathise with these people. Reminds me of the same kind of cr@p I went through when I was a practicing catholic.

I have more sympathy for those who have to pretend to believe in something they don't agree with due to the death penalty and persecution for apostasy.

This lady is a champion for womens rights and one of the best critics of Islam,she was raised as a muslim in Syria.

As usual you miss the point. Being as fanatical as you are can make you blind like that.

You missed the point.

Any comments on what Wafa Sultan says about Islam and why she speaks out about it or do you think only Christianity should be able to be criticised?

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

No silly. What I'm saying is that anything she has to say about islam is equally applicable (not more applicable, not less applicable but equally applicable) to christianity and religion generally. And not necessarily in specifics (I don't care that "most" christians no longer persecutes apostasy) but fundamentally they are the same. You want me to believe that Islam is worse and I'm telling you all religions are as bad as each other and that there was a time when chistianity ferociously persecuted apostasy and there is no reason to believe that in the future it would not return to doing so because that is the nature of religion. Follow!

In detail, yes but not in kind and I'm not sure how that's relevant. The thing is what has grown up around them is religion which has been passed down through the ages and employed by religious people doing the kind of things that religious people do

Haha. Excellent joke. Out of all of the major religions, I would have to say Muhammad is the worst of the leaders/figureheads. The best, imho, is Jesus. Buddha would be runner-up. Krishna is a bit mixed, but still well ahead of Muhammad. Muhammad would rank dead last. I'd even vote the capricious gods of the Greco-Roman religions over him.

About the Judaic God, Yahweh? He's a plenty mean dude, killing people by the million! Grin

Ah, so the teachings of Muhammed and Jesus are irrelevant to the religions of Islam and Christianity?

Do you see any difference between any set of ideas in kind, even as they may differ in detail?

You sound like the cab driver in the Woody Allen movie, Anything Else:

Jerry Falk: I was just saying how strange life is, how it's full of inexplicable mystery.
Cab Driver: Well, you know, it's like anything else.

Christianity, Isam, atheism, Scientology, life, death, voodoo, cannibalism, nasty, kind - it's all like anything else. Must not notice differences because noticing differences is discrimination - telling the difference. And that's bad. Distinguishing between peoples, customs, ideas is bad because it is discrimination.

So everything is like everything else. That's a safe place to be.
