I choose not to judge any religions. I am more likely to judge the effects of a multitude of bickering religions. I love how each person that is religious fails to admit the negativeness of diverse beliefs. No one is willing to step outside that circle of defense and call a spade a spade. The way religions are set up the only thing that people feel required to do is defend their religion. No one is willing to admit that this is what is keeping the people of the world from coming together to stop all the madness, world hunger, our constant abuse of the ecology, the abuses we as people subject each other to. Our organized religion's reluctance to compromise at all is why our world is at war and is why it has been at war for thousands of years. Our current, and relatively newly aquired knowledge of the world requires us all to modify our religious beleifs, to include the new information we now know as fact, so we can all work together to save our planet. The only way, to get all the religions together, that I can see, is Humanism. Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. ~Richard Armour There are many men of principle in both parties in America, but there is no party of principle. ~Alexis de Tocqueville |
