Thread Name: BS: Religion=good folk doing bad things?
Subject: RE: BS: Religion=good folk doing bad things?
The only point I was trying to make was that when subjectivity enters the process, someone must have the last word and the game must be played. This is similar to a point I and others have tried to make in the past in 'discussions' with you, Shambles.

Perhaps this was a point so minor and 'bleedin' obvious to us all - that it did not need to be made at all?

(A LOT of people, me included, thought that the Florida vote was 'unfair' in our 2000 election, but most of us are not continuously revisiting that or the court decision that allowed that election to stand.)

Perhaps that is why the result of your next election is likely to be just as unsatifactory?

The point that you keep trying to avoid in this thread is that a special case is made and many excuses given for the bad things done because of and in the name of organised religions - which are not made when bad things are done because of and in the name of other organisations.

Some posters who are more than ready to pass (and impose) their judgement here on individuals and many other things - are claiming that judgement placed upon organised religions is unfair.
