Predict the 1st Banning for uncivil behavior in the new Religious Threads...

[Kutnupe14]

I wasn't there At the time. It doesn't bother me if people believe something I think is untrue. As long as they don't go making laws around it.

It bothers me only when they assert it as fact to people who aren't aware of the truth.

It doesn't mean I wont argue a point.

That is what adult discussion is about. Arguments are expected. Minds can (or not) be changed.

Oh snap! Manning battle station!!!!!

 

[mbills2223]

And I'm predicting Fenway will be the first one banned as a result of this change.

[Expat]

I'm having a hard time visualizing who these people would be. The same people who aren't aware that the Earth revolves around the sun, or the sun around the galactic core? They seem like a lost cause in any event...


Of course there are truths, and there are truths.

There is no one "truth". Everyone's truth is different. Therein lies the issue.

In the eternal after life all these questions will be brought to light. We are free to believe whatever we like, but all have to deal with the same questions. What happens the moment after death? What if you chose incorrectly?

Amen. That's all I'm saying too. Keep your Beliefs to yourself and out of my government

Well, there is, but we don't learn the absolute truth until after the test is over.

 

[Snapdragon]

But you see, your "truth" is that there is one truth, and my "truth" is that there isn't.

No, my point is only one concept can be true. We won't know until we die.

since many religions are nearly diametrically opposed to each other. All of them cannot be true.
truth isn't tolerant, understanding, generous, or mean. It's just the truth.
