Thread Name: BS: Unarmed soldier killed, (London-May 2013)
Subject: RE: BS: Unarmed soldier killed, Woolwich (London)
"Is it less acceptable to say that you are more anti one religion than another?"
I am not "anti - religious" in any sense - I choose not to believe, but I respect the right of anybody who does.
My arguments are with churches who attain political/social power and abuse it - especially by making their brand of religion a foregone conclusion, as all churches have done at one time or another.
We are at present seeing the dying throes (I hope) of the political power of the Christian church in Ireland - it can't come fast enough as far as I'm concerned.
No - I don't find any one religion any more or less acceptable than another.
As far as churches are concerned - all are a threat when they are allowed to be - Christian churches are no exception.
What's your point?
A week ago the 'Question Time' panel was asked if the behaviour of the British and American Governments towards other countries had in any way influenced incidents such as the killing of the soldier in Woolwich - each of them (Lib Dem, Conservative, Labour, Ukip and a non-declared, but probably Conservative) said it had - not surprisingly missing from your arguments.
One of the killers shouted religious slogans following his butchery; he also told how Muslims were suffering at the hands of the west - also missing from your arguments.
You - both of you choose to make this killing purely "religious" in nature and use it as an excuse to vomit your bile on all Muslims, despite your protests to the contrary - no surprise there either.
BTW
Please stop sending me PMs trying to prove that all Muslims are perverts - all religions have their share of degenerates - want me to send you some cloips of Christian Paedos?
