Subject: Is Religion Right?
Pelopanisian    3/7/2006 12:02:28 PM
I believe that we should rid the world of religion any way. Just think, no religion means that people think for themselves. FINALLY, a change in the world. Look back in history and you'll notice that religion as caused more death and destruction then the black death. Islam vs. Jews, Islam vs. Christianity, the Crusades, all battles and conflicts that deal with religion as the main reason for th fighting. Just think about it.

you're right religion causes problems but it also stops mayhem if there were no religion people would kill each other witout hesitating steal things without hesitating(many of them) i think religion should be a less important thing for communities or there should be only one religion(and it may have followers and non-followers)

I dont buy that, Kane - in fact, I see no evidence at all that without religion "people would kill each other without hesitating". I certainly unaware of any correlation whatsoever between non-belief in supernatural creatures and random murder. And I am certainly aware of a correlation between belief in certain types of supernatural creatures and random murder, as the news all too often reminds us. However, perhaps you'd care to add some supporting evidence? eu4ea

My fellow pelopanisian friend I agree with you. If the world didnt have religion there would be less fighting overall. And those of you who think if there isnt any religion there would be total caos, i think your wrong because getting rid of religion isnt getting rid of government so there would still be some order... but if you look in the past like what pelopanisian said you would know that religion just ruin great nations, just look at the romans the most biggest and badest of all empires during its time but christianity tore them apart if they didnt have religion i believe they would still be around today...But the question is could christianity ruin the United States just like the romans???

I think religion shouldnt be the charactheristic for a country's political view. also having only one religion is non-senese the thing you have to do is not to think religiously while you are making a political decision.

You want evidence? Here it is. the Roman Empire was the greatest empire to ever exist on Earth. The Roman's believed in the religion that they stole from the greeks, and then they fell apart. Why? Because of christianity my friend. Christianity riuned an weakened the Roman's martial spirit. it made them weak and vunarable. That is why Rome fell. Because of religion that weakened them so.

i dont think religion weakened them, there might be some effects of religion but we cant say just religion weakened them. if you can give some examples how christianity weakened the roman's martial spirit that would be better, i cant see your point clearly.

I think you're confusing religion with Kryptonite. The two are very different.

Were do you people get your info from? Too much land and political instability plus too many enamys were what caused the fall of Rome. Nazi germany was not of any real religion, and were is the 1000 year rech? the USSR denounced relgion and so does China. Are they any good?

I have to agree with Mex - the fall of the roman empire and cristianity had very little to do with each other. There are plenty of other reasons for the fall, and ultimately christianity is essentially a mash-up of mithraism and abrahamic religions, both of which were common throughout the empire. Which is not to say I dont agree with the main thrust of the argument; I agree that religiously-based politics are harmfull and one of the worst possible bases for a system of government. That stuff about christianity causing the fall of the roman empire is *very* silly, however, as is the claim that the roman empire was the greatest empire in history... eu4ea

i agree with eu4ea.... also Max101 you said "And those of you who think if there isnt any religion there would be total caos, i think your wrong because getting rid of religion isnt getting rid of government so there would still be some order." you skip a point most of the governmental rules are based on religious rules. again my thought on this is dont think religiously while you're making a political choice...

"governmental rules are based on religious rules. again my thought on this is dont think religiously while you're making a political choice.." I agree, Religion, our mine, was never meant to be used in government, Why do you Think that Jesus or the apostles never led a revolution? Idiots are the ones who want to use Religion for their own sac religious purposes. That is the real problem. Do you really think that to Pope that started the crusades really cared about God?
