Hatred!

I'm sorry, but if you are talking about the discussion in which a man believes his wife to be his property and he has the option of punishing her for wrongdoing, I cannot agree with you. I didn't view that discussion as necessarily condemning a religion as much as it was condemning a practice. Women are not property and not their husband's slaves. I will belong to no man and no man has the right to "correct" me or tell me what to do. I am an adult and I live in a free society. I do hope that this is not the practice you are defending.

Well I don't see anything wrong in discussions about religion. I think it is good to discuss, share ideas, and thoughts, and thereby learn about other cultures, and their beliefs. I am not at all religious, but I am always interested to read and learn about what other people think, even if I choose not to believe in things myself. What I don't like at all though is censorship, and in my view, people stopping other MyLot members from speaking their minds, and making their judgements, or talking of religion, is censorship, and I don't like it one bit. This is a free world, and people have a right to say what they like in my opinion.

I agree with you. People need to stop looking at the few people that are vocal and thinking that every person that practices the religion is the same. Saying all Muslims are bad because some extremists are killing in the name of their faith, or some beat their wives is wrong. Some Christian men beat their wives, preform acts of terror, there are some very extreme Christian people that are so off in the land of weird that they convince others to kill themselves. Generalizing a faith on the acts of extremists is like saying all Cubans, or Koreans, or Russians, or Germans, or Africans, or Chinese are bad because you don't like their leader. Just wrong, learn about the people not the few. Try understanding the culture before you condemn the whole on the acts of a very vocal and visible few.

I am not religious at all. When I answer or start religious discussions it is not because I hate the religion its because I want to make people think about their beliefs and whether they are realy the right ones for them.

you only assume they know nothing about your faith because they do not agree with yours i for one am well learned in most faiths as i have a degree in comparative religions i do understand others religionds however many of them I do not care to share nor do I agree with them !this does not make me stupid it just makes me dissagree with you !I do not hate you or your people but just as you feel about my faith i think yours is the wrong one and in my country i do thANK God HAVE THAT RIGHT !

Just I was reading your discussion I remembered I had responded to a discussion about blind beliefs of some particular religion which I also didn't like. I didn't mean to write against the particular religion, but the practice. Propagating some vicious things about any particular religion is truly a very irresponsible behavior. Be it any religion, it promotes peace and harmony amongst each other, it's sometime the followers who become fanatic.

I am personally a free thinker so I feel I have no right to speak about religion, but I think that every human has the right to choose his own beliefs and to vilify other religions and promoted hatred towards it is just despicable.

I hate ALL religions, it does not matter which one, I hate them ALL. Why? They are all CULTS. Religions are CULTS.

Really hate? I've not once read a post that really put down a religion!? But I agree with you, if someone really does post something like that it's just bacuse they don't know enough. You can't be critical about something you don't know anything about right? :-)

I have seen a lot of discussions talking about religion here, and I love talking about it. I am a jew, and a few weeks ago, me and some other members had an arguement with a member that spoke badly on our religion. At first it wasn't so bad, but than that member wrote racist things, and I had to report him. I don't care what people think about other religions, as long it's not racist words.

People who bash on other religions are just ignorant and you shouldn't really take it personally; however, I know it's easier said than done. I don't really agree with the whole organized religion deal. Religion is what/who an individual believes to be the higher power. INDIVIDUAL. That's just what I believe though. Everybody has a religion, even if they don't believe in a higher being, that's what they believe, that's their religion. People should have the right to believe and have faith in whatever they want without having to worry about being judged about it.

I have never read anything here that has anything to do with hatred. I haven't been here that long though. I believe that everyone has the right to believe what ever they chose.I don't think me ar aybody else has the right to judge someone else for thier religion.

These people are as entitled to their opinion as you or I. While they do not agree with our beliefs and try to spread that hatred it is easy to see that they are far out numbered by those of us who do believe and try to put a little somethiung good out in the world

I don't spread hate myself, I just seek facts. However, there are also a lot of people who are quite knowledgeable about religions and do criticize them. That should be just fine. ALL beliefs should be questioned and examined. Peace without reason is just another word for dictatorship or theocracy. I agree there should be peace, but not without questions and examination of beliefs. In fact, I'd say that religion is one of the biggest reasons we don't have peace.

Action by such mylotians are highly condemnable. Let them keep the religion within 4 walls of their house and not washing linen in public.

I totally agree with you.Those people just do not have any knowledge or any idea,they just throw the discussion at the face that's it.

Well I don't hate any religion. But I do hate does that show bad judgement towards other religions. I mean the only reason they hate it is because it's not what they are. If they were it they would be mad when people make fun of their religion.

i have not seen any discussion which bad. but some were bluff .

Hello salam, I actually avoid responding to any topics about religion. I'm not a confrontational person and whatever religion I have, I keep it as my own. I did read some of the discussions posted, but I realized it was not doing me any good but giving me more questions. I abhored some members attacking each other's religion. But as always, this is a forum open for everyone. Anybody can state their opinions in whatever words they like to use. Happy posting!

Quiet right! Me and my hubby belong to different religions and are still coaxing our parents to accept us. I'd apprecite more 'How to cope with parents after marrige discussions rather than turn Faith into a money making scheme on Mylotters. Where is the Honesty guys....... Make a difference and keep your Marketing and Faith out of this all please.
