Revelence of Religion

[Jersay]

What is the importance of religion in this day and age. Does it have to concern with the language we speak, the colour of our skin. Or is it not a concern at all and all the violence that is going on in the name of religion is just radicals trying to spread fear on all sides.

In Arabic:

يذهب فوق باسم دين متطرفات صحيحة يحاول أن ينشر خوف على كلّ جوانبماذا يكون الأهمية الدين في هذا يوم وعمر. هو يضطرّ تعلّقت مع اللغة نحن نتكلّم ، اللون من جلدنا. أو هو لا اهتمام في كلّ و [ألّ ث] عنف أنّ يكون.

RE: أهمية

Jersay! Can you teach us how to speak and write in Arabic? Like, beginner's lessons?

 

[FiveParadox]

RE: أهمية

On another note, Jersay, avoid using Arabic in the headers; it does not appear to be showing up correctly (at least under my browser — if it appears normally for others, then by all means, never mind).

 

[Jersay]

Re: أهمية

When I get better at Arabic I promise to teach you and anyone else interested Arabic lessons.

And I agree about the heading, It was okay in the beginning but it turned out awful

Yay! Thank you! ありがとう!

Okay, so maybe Japanese doesn't quite fit the subject; but whatever.

RE: أهمية

i must confess my bias against religion
i believe it a form of mass delusion
it think it is a primitive devisive mode of thinking
but i could be saying that because i havent found the right one

i was raised christian -- but long ago- actually at the age of 13 i turned against it-- ive always hated the old testament - it is so tribal, petty, and vengefull-- how some intellectuals could possibly equate the bible with the trully mind enhancing discoveries of the greek philosophers is astounding------

the 10 commandments -- that supposedly unique revelation in the old testament----
are fairly universal HUMAN values present in some form ar another in virtually all human societies-- they spring forth from the constitution of our central nervous systems not from an extradimensional spiritual world--
how any one culture can claim them as uniquely their own-- or that god uniquely reveals these truths to only one people is idiotic

umm
i thought so
i thought the post was about the revelance of religion
i thought i was saying it was relevent in that it a symptom of tribal arrogance- at least the only religion i can claim to understand- or misunderstand from the inside
i suppose by picking on the old testament i was trying to rope in judaism, christanity and islam -- which are really variations on the theme of tribal arrogance-- in my opinion

sincerely - i didnt mean to stray of topic--

am i reading the post right--- i must admit im very tired right now.....

Revise Header! Please!

Jersay, could you click the Edit button on your first post in this thread and change the subject header to something legible, please? It is just appearing as HTML Identities to me, lol; if I am the only one having this problem though, it might just be a problem with my encoding.

Please? Thank you!

RE: أهمية

I can see the relevence, and if religion is going to be raised as a topic, it seems that we can look at any organized religion that has manipulated our spirituality into something which I don't believe was ever intended....religion is the fuel for many of the fires raging around us .... when do ya think we'll all start recognizing the common denominators we all share and lose the need to let censored and mutilated renditions of ancient spiritual texts do our thinking for us?

When George W. stops using the word "god" in his speechs.

 

[Jersay]

I do believe Religion or certain parts of religion are relevent.

I am an Asatru or Heathen follower, and I believe in the spiritual value of my gods, and the three kinds of places you can go if you die.

I hope to go to Valhalla and battle with other Viking or heathen warriors. :wink:

 

[Jay]

That's incredible.

Most people want to go to "heaven" and exist peacefully and meet God. Not Jersay! He wants to go to war land and beat on Vikings. Wow!

Because I am a Viking, or heathen that is right. I want to go to Valhalla and battle with other Viking warriors.

And besides there is suppose to be a suckling pig every day.
