well but If people discovered that the Bible is a history of imperial life of a family or something like that. and that the Bible describes the miracle just to do with love and that love is just a divine power. but any not religions.

which is related with all its miracles in the history unexplained.

 

will know

 

and Scientology is a cult that worships manipulate and glorify to not have soul . yes to become people without empathy. in addition they seek money from the rich and the poors, and worse they are brainwashed. they taught to be perfect.

 

sorry but in the world is already called superficial and is a genre of Scientology

 

because religion is just something private. everything is free,

 

 

and is just a idea for all this religions against people bisexual and homosexual :

 

 

for my part I have impression is like soul woman in the body of man or man soul in the body of woman . but the sicence not explain the soul, is not real then will not explain the behavior of very normal bi or gay . the people think they are crazy and is bad.

If you actually bothered looking at this thread, you would clearly see what you posted is unrelated copypasta.

It's funny how the only people who voted that religion is completely harmful on the poll are me and Micha, tells about where we're from.

I think that there is good in relgion in that there are some organizations that donate money. However at the same time you could then thus argue that Hezbollah is good because they also donate to charity, yet we know of their atrocities.

I don't understand how people can think that religion does only good, or only evil when we are talk about every religion out there. There are some positive aspects, naturally, even if it's simply a sense of community. Likewise when you consider every religion there is no way that you can say it is completely positive when you look at the atrocities.

 

I respect anyone's opinion who's vote has been cast in either of these options, but I certainly disagree. I do not believe that there is only evil in anything. Even Hitler was nice to his dog, until he shot it.

The results so far are quite interesting and there's been a good turn out too.

Almost equal either side of the middle ground, which also has a fair following in itself.

I also like the results so far and find them interesting. I do though agree that it can't be completely positive or completely negative because there are both positive and negative aspects in pretty much everything.

I love how this thread has remained um...not fighty but actual discussion.

/can't remember the word

Hello everyone

 

Interesting thread @ the_gloaming09

 

I think organized religion and religious institutions are very harmful BUT I don't mind people having a personal faith.

I think someone’s personal beliefs are okay as long as they don't shove their beliefs down other people’s throat.

 

@ Lyvie and Wyrd

 

Yes talks of religion arouse me very much

It could also have been tears of joy ... :(

 

but good to see you back :)

The harm comes from the people, not the religion. Every religion asks its adherents to do good, but what they do is corrupting the purity and the virtue of the religion. I took comparative religion course once and I got A- wtf I was supposed to get an A my essays were so good jeez I hate that lecturer

 

:|

Hey what a completely balanced poll result. I accidentally trolled :awesome:
