So you figure to abolish the church and tear them all down worldwide, because you are blind?
No.... Because I can see.
You're the one hearing voices.

My proposal for Church of the Beaver seems to have attracted some questionable comment.....perhaps we could find another name in keeping with the reference to the natural world in general and the forest in particular. Something evocative of nature's beauty......a sunrise?
Church of the Morning Wood????
Your biased selectivity relative to religion is what is hypocritical. The above quote serves only to attempt some form of personal absolution that you apparently want to represent on this issue.
Peer pressure, family, personal experience, education (or lack thereof) can influence some people to be racist, sexist, hateful and homophobic... Do you condemn those "institutions" as destructive and corrosive elements in the same manner as religion?
No.... Because I can see.

Duh! I have ears to hear when God speaks the word of truth... If you know of any other method of listening skills please let me know. :lol:
It seems clear from the assembled theological minds here in this august organ that what we are compelled to undertake is the erection of a true universal church. I would be honoured to advance my good name as prime minister of the ad hoc board in a temporary capacity (no more than ten years) untill such time as the manual is completed and herding has commenced.
Absolutely. If an institution promotes racism , sexism, homophobia etc. if an institution has institutionalized these attributes, then it deserves to be condemned in the strongest terms.
And perhaps not institutionalized racism (I assume not any more), but Catholic and many other churches certainly have institutionalized sexism and homophobia.
Would you listen?
To who? You or God? As God and I know each other so well it's no more then a quick glance at this point, for all has been said allready..
..and yet you claim to know God?
Well... If that's the case, ask God yourself he might tell you a story about me.
He has. He said: "A nuclear reactor is a heat source" and "Man, does this dude ever need glasses and a hearing aid."....
Yeah well, that's between you and the man upstairs.
I live in a bungalow.... Didn't you hear that either?
Depends if your praying or not... I can hear a prayer but no way in hell am I psychic.
Still ... you claim to not know me? I'm a bit disappointed seeing as you praise your familiarity of God....
There's always the fertilizer industry....
