@Telegram20 Amen to that brother. Sheesh, enough with the dark ages & all the superstitions thereof.

@123footballers That depends where you are. In the U.S. the fastest growing religion is Catholicism due to the huge influx of people from Hispanic countries. Hindus outnumber Muslims in the U.S. & both are mostly due to immigrants. The fastest growing group, growing faster than all religions here, are people professing adherence to no religion (not atheists mind you, just turned off by organized religion). This trend had been increasing steadily over the years but really increased after 9/11

@mmedefarge Whatever the reason,Islam is Growing Fast,,
-
@mmedefarge Neither, just responding to a comment.
-
@cincinatus90 Oy, you are concrete or just a troll.
-
@mmedefarge The subject is, for the third time, death, destruction and misery created by a force. A subject you brought up yourself. If you dont want to talk about it then dont, i was simply responding to your comment on the subject (see above) you brought up.

@cincinatus90 Are you trolling, or what? The "subject" is religion, not Communism or heart disease. You're taking a sentence out of context. The subject of the paragraph is stated in the first sentence. Communism & Fascism didn't rear their ugly heads until late 19th century; they'd have to do a lot more "death, misery & destruction" to catch up to religion. Disease isn't even in the same ballpark; that's just tangential thinking.
-
Your comment and the subject of it was how much death, misery and destruction something created. Your not happy that i pointed out that some other things besides religion have caused these things on a massive scale. What i said was true and in context, and it didnt disagree that religion has done horrible things. I know you dont like God or at least the "Abrahamic Gods", i get it.
-
@cincinatus90 But the vid was about religion. My comment & the subject of the paragraph was about relligion/ideology, not disease (see 1st sentence).. Before there was Communism, Fascism & all the other political ideologies, there was religion. Religion WAS & still is to some extent, a political ideology. Why would you think I was talking about "disease"? Apparently no one else had that problem.
-
I was not speaking of ideology or religion. I was responing to your comment that said in part: " responsible for more, death, destruction & misery throughout the ages than any other force", And certainly disease and corrupt governments IE communism are a force in and of themselves.
Even though I am in the minority group of Americans, only 15% on this issue; I feel I am in the most reasonable and rational group. (smile)

Bibles are a waste of trees and paper. They should all be recycled into science textbooks.
