Article in The Times, Religion is ‘the new social evil’ Pollsters asked 3,500 people what they considered to be the worst blights on modern society, updating a list drawn up by Rowntree, a Quaker, 104 years ago. |

faith - not just in its extreme form - was intolerant, irrational and used to justify persecution. Gosh, that sounds a lot like what people have been doing to me... ;) (Maybe the devil should learn to exercise a little self control.) It may not be 1984 but George Orwell sure did see the future . . . |

I still haven't seen you mention ( in straight, plain language ) that Muslim Extremists should stop killing in the name of Allah. And I do not oppose you....lol Air Cold, the blade stops; from silent stone, Death is preordained Calm Chaos Forums : Everyone Welcome |

Do Muslim militants really represent thr true Islamic faith or way of life? 'No one can make you inferior without your consent.' Eleanor Roosevelt. |

It's sad that people always need a scape-goat. Now it's but the religion in general, despite of the fact that each religion teaches tolerance towards those who believe otherwise (though some of their representatives don't) Account frozen... |
