u say u want a change to ocme

what better place to initiate change than in the mind

if a belief is ignorant, hurtful and can span bad things then it should be changed.

why tolerate something because it is a "religion?"

what if killing others is a religion

should u tolerate it?

I'm not talking about EXTREMISTS who bomb people or hurt them in some other way...I'm talking about those who use it as a basis for their faith, not a basis for harm. If you want to study voudun (sp?) isn't that a form of religion, do you want to use it for harm or good? Who am I to wish you wouldn't do it (the good). Whether religion ceases to exist or not it's SOME Humans that will use another excuse to cause harm in the world.

And I've now fulfilled my 2 post quota for the religion forum for the year.
