Re: The tie that saved Rome. Do Western nations need a State Religion?

In your OP you point to real issues and problems and ask very good questions. Thanks. When I read your post I felt that what you described was essentially the root of an enormous problem that is not at all easy to visualise or express. True but if I make it too long or complicated it would not get ...

[ Quite a strange one in the sense that the head of the church, the Queen, if not a Queen, would not be allowed by that misogynous church to be it's head.

And thankfully that means we are far less religious than the idiots across the pond.

Re: Are all believers in God automatically idol worshipers?

Even a robot chooses. Surely choosing to do good; such as bombing an abortion clinic, queer bashing, or flying a plane into the WTC - is that a free choice- or are they robots. You do not seem very clear on that point. Robots do not choose, they can only do what their human programmers have directe...

Re: Are all believers in God automatically idol worshipers?

It is amusing that so many will first condemn the Bible as unreliable for any account, and then attempt to use the words of the Bible to condemn God. Now which is it? is the Bible an inaccurate fiction that should be cast aside? or is it an accurate account of Gods works on this Earth? or is it an ...

Re: Are all believers in God automatically idol worshipers?

Ask your baby killing God, who kills children and babies for what their parents do. You will have to ask Him yourself, when you see Him. For we all will. However, if you imagine you'll be able to pin on Him what those he's given the gift of freedom have done with it, or to justify yourself while co...

Religions has divided, and always will divide, people. They will never unite us, if we talk about bigger scope, e.g. entire Europe, or entire world...
