Ken Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 [quote name='Raphael' date='Nov 12 2005, 01:53 PM']In other words, "there's a hunger of some kind...and I know something must fill it...but I'm not willing to accept the possibility that it's the same thing that fills everyone else, nor that there are certain people who eat it, but don't allow themselves to eat enough of it to fill them (those who do not practice the faith demanded by a religion, but do not stick to its tenets, i.e. the hypocrites most agnostics point to for the reason of their lack of faith)." If that's the case, of course...then a banquet is being served...why do you stop yourself from eating just because others don't want any more?

I was having Catholicism kinda crammed down my throught, but then I learned of the massive amount of corruption, and bloodshed caused by organized religions for thousands of years. The Crusades, The Inquisition, the conquest of the Americas, shooting abortion doctors, Palestinian childeren with bombs strapped to thier chests marching into a shopping mall, Isreali tanks firing into crowded tenements, just more things to turn me away. I just found it unnerving that these people who's beliefs were based on peace, could have so much blood on thier hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][snapback]787135[/snapback][/right] [/quote] I generally don't tell people I'm going to pray for them unless I am planning to. And since I had no intentions of praying for you, I didn't say I was going to. silly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
