This is an interesting thread, I think it is important to remember that most religous people are good people, but it only takes a few to spoil things, like northern Ireland, the recent terrorist attacks in America,Israel, Kosovo etc.Most religous people have got nothing at all to do with any of these events, they just want to live a peaceful life, I dont know much about religion, but I know that all religions tell people to be peaceful and help people, for example in islam you should give 2 percent of your money to help the poor people, this is only if you can afford it.If you are unemployed or on sick you dont have to.In the shop I work in, I am the only non muslim there, there have been racist insults and attacks (my boss got beat up by a racist).This is really bad.I am not especially religous, but I think it is important for everybody to respect other peoples religions.

Somepeople say how do you know there is a God if you can't see him?
Well you can't see electricity, but it is there!
I am not saying that people should believe in God, I am not even sure myself, but I think there probably is.john
