That is Courage and Bravery. But within any religion some can carry religion to such an extreme, this is what causes the most problems. And it's always in the name of religion.
I've got news for you. There are people in Africa today who are raping, murdering, and destroying everything in their path, all in the name of Christ..
That is very true. There are Christian groups throughout Africa that do witch burnings, fairly frequently. There is nothing in the slightest that is beautiful about that.
It's inspiring that someone who doesn't have the intellect to use critical thinking skills goes from the frying pan to the fryer???
Some people need religion. I believe there was a scientific study out recently that showed that certain genes make some people more prone to being religious. Perhaps she is one of those.
Honestly, I have no problem with Christianity, Islam, Judaism, or any other religion unless someone is using that religion for nefarious means, such as Muslims and Christians in Africa who kill people using religion as the excuse to do so.
I also don't like it when people try to paint one religion as worse than the other, when its painfully obvious that most major religions are just as bad as every other one. That to me, is also nefarious, and should have the light of factual data shined upon it. Islam gets a bad rap, mainly because its the major religion in the worst part of the world right now. My point is, its not Islam that makes that the worst part of the world, its the fact that they are some of the most repressed, picked on, and ignored region of the world. Their leaders use their religion to repress their people to stay in power. Thats not Islams fault.
Its like saying that guns kill people. Someone has to wield that weapon to do the killing. Religion is only a weapon.
Sure, I asked if you had a link, I didn't dispute it i know these countries do this all the time, i wanted to read it don't get so uptight.
