Topic: Religion is like a Penis - page 3. (Read 3088 times)

Completely agree with the OP. Nowaday.s, there is a lot of religious fanaticism around the world. Brainwashing is everywhere and the two major religions (Christianity and Islam) are fighting among themselves to convert the maximum number of people. There is religious intolerance everywhere.

At first the media was covering the incident. But then Muslim groups threatened them that every Muslim would boycott the media, unless they withdraw the story from their dailies and tv channels. The Muslim lobby is quite powerful around here, and so the media apologized to them and withdraw the news.

Religion is like a penis: hard, scary, mushroom-like and fantastical, soft, weird, always coming for people, and in some cases long.

For once i agree with you, No one should go around enforcing their beliefs on another person. Everyone's religious choice must be respected including those who have no religion whatsoever, we are all human beings.

That's sad... and recent

The Judeo-Christian religions are the worst when it comes to attacking other people... it happens hundreds of times in the bible

Jews, Christians, Muslims (the Judeo-Christian / Abrahamic religions) are very barbaric and warlike...

Happened almost two decades back. My people are still living in refugee camps in inhumane conditions. They can go back to their villages only if they are ready to convert to Christianity. The biggest joke is that all this happening in a country which is having a Hindu majority. Check this:

this type of comment is really destructive, everybody should respect every religion and belief, maybe someone cannot put faith on any religion or principle but they should not put any destructive comment or insult to any religion. I personally believe that every religion has some basement so we must respect religion...

I honestly didn't realize groups of Christians are still committing genocide (other than USA bombing/invading countries)... I thought that ended with the dark ages, crusades, inquisition, witch hunts and slavery

How long ago did they attack your village?

Sigh. This is why we really need massive secularization of the state. If the religious elite can still keep on abusing their power in secular countries, just imagine if the religious establishment actually have a larger control the government, like how things have been in the past.

That madrassa incident reminds me of erring parish priests. How where they able to completely hush it? Did they manage to bribe media as well? I just hope enough people managed to hear of it through social media, at least they'd be able to protect their kids by moving them to a different madrassa or cautioning them of possible abuses.

Being a religious Hindu, who had to flee his hometown to defend his religious views, I have to disagree with you. We take out religious processions in the public, as a message to the Christians that despite committing genocide against us, they can't force us to abandon our religion.

It completely pisses me off every time a few friends from a certain religion try to give me reasons why I should convert to their super 'holy' religion. The world will be so much better to live in once people from different religions learn to tolerate each other.

Deuteronomy 17:12 - Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death.  Such evil must be purged from Israel

Exodus 22:19 - Whoever sacrifices to any god, except the Lord alone, shall be doomed

Zechariah 13:3 - If a man still prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall say to him, “You shall not live, because you have spoken a lie in the name of the Lord.”  When he prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall thrust him through

Deuteronomy 13:7-12 - If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him.  Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you.  You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.  And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst.

Deuteronomy 17:2-5 - Suppose a man or woman among you, in one of your towns that the LORD your God is giving you, has done evil in the sight of the LORD your God and has violated the covenant by serving other gods or by worshiping the sun, the moon, or any of the forces of heaven, which I have strictly forbidden.  When you hear about it, investigate the matter thoroughly. If it is true that this detestable thing has been done in Israel, then that man or woman must be taken to the gates of the town and stoned to death.
