As if that makes anything better? Why only certain conditions? Ridiculous. Half-measures again, from people that cherry-pick their religion as I said before.
I don't care if it is individual or church level. If you call yourself a follower of X religion and you don't follow its principles, you're cherry-picking in my book. Why exactly do you think there's great debate around these issue? Might have something to do with imposing positions on certain issues to their followers?
I swear, I don't know how many times I've heard that BS before. Religion of peace and forgiveness eh? Tell that to the lady that received a bowl of battery acid in her face because she talked to another man. That's also probably why Saudi Arabia and any other Islam-based country is basically a prison camp of the medieval era. Religion police, censure, beatings, honor killings, women dumbed down to cattle, etc. Whoever say that is full of sh*t and as I've said before, the actual REALITY of this religion is very different than what's in the book. You also have these crazy nutjobs from ISIL spreading terror all around the world. Come again with that religion of peace.
Go ahead with your secular argument, I'm fine with that. When someone tries to argue with his religion, that's where I draw the line. Religion should be an individual and personal aspect not something to be imposed on the society.
I actually agree with that, both religions have the some origins. Try telling that to a Muslim though, and make him agree with you, these people go nuts for caricatures of their God there's no way they would accept such a comparison.
Obviously this example I used was for a theoretical example, nobody's gonna argue that being ''pro-suicide'' is a valid opinion. You said religion doesn't impose morality, it does. If you do X you're going to hell, if you do Y you're going to paradise. Society imposes morality as well, only in a different fashion.
Because we were on the religious topic, and all representatives from the biggest religion of this world are entirely comprised of males. Do you actually think this is a coincidence? Do you think things would've been the same if, say, a women had been on the clergy for centuries?
