why is it destroying the world?
the extremist factions of the religions in question (jews, muslims, christians) have taken over and are leading the world into chaos.
i'm sick of hearing Chrisitans hear talk about "those crazy muslims" while their leaders refuse to admit global warming is real.
and i'm sick of muslim leaders saying the pope should step down (or be killed) for what he said when they preach nothing but hate for other religous groups.
and I'm sick of the Jews and their "what about me?" attitude when it comes to their oppression of Palestine.
i've fucking had it!

God...Allah...they are all alive and here right now. You won't find them in a book, church, mosque, or religious exercise. The harder you look for them there, the farther away from them you will get.
That is what the vast majority of people...hundreds of millions the world over...just don't get. Religion cannot prevail, because religion is not God. Wars fought over religion are really just wars that humans would fight anyway. religion is only the excuse.

hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks
extremists see their religion as the only way to live life. religious/spiritual people see religion as a guide for living life.
"What, the polar icecaps are melting? Fine ... I shall turn the other cheek!"
right on. by using the "excuse" of religion, people can't argue. its like "well shit, if its for god..."
religion is just a form of control, and has divided people for thousands of years. and here we are on the brink of world devesatation, and all because religous groups can;t get along?
mind blowing!
yeah, it'll pass. no big deal
I'm right there with you. I believe in my personal faith in God... not in the religions that Man created in His name.

Went on this fishing trip to the Sierras, just South of Yosemite... fuckin' aye... standing below the shear granite cliffs... then atop those cliffs and over looking that tremendous valley... dude... THAT'S a Cathedral. That's where I'll talk to God.
Hail, Hail!!!
I see the other poster's point, though ... It is not something about Christian doctrine that causes people to deny global warming. It has something to do with our society ... Capitalism? Ignorance? Ditto with the Jews "poor me" thing you identified. I happen to think that they have a point, mind you, but regardless, they don't act that way because they're Jewish. The political and social situation causes them to act this way, not the religion, necessarily.
And the point about Islam? Maybe there's a stronger case for a religious cause there. Or, maybe it says more about some of the bigots who practice it. Islam can be practiced in a tolerant fashion.

Maybe, God and Jesus and Mohammed would be better served if we all just read our Holy Text and got the inspiration ourselves... not from the guy at the pulpit.

But... that's just me... and i don't expect anyone to follow or listen.
Hail, Hail!!!
That's a very strange comparison and I fail to see the relevance.
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
religion isn't destroying the world, evil people manipulating it are.
you're equating muslim extremists who fly planes into building and riot after cartoons with leaders refusing to admit global warming? that's not a fair comparison at all.
i can't stop laughing at this.

Have we lost our way tonight?
Have we lost our hope to sorrow?
Feels like were all alone
Running further from what’s right
And there are no more heroes to follow
So what are we becoming?
Where did we go wrong?
should io explain further? 'cause i think the way i wrote it was kind of meandering because i was in a hurry
this has nothing to do with "politics". this is religion at its worst. good vs. evil.
it just depends on what religion you are to which is the good side.
very clever...
people are using religion to destroy the world.

to think there are sooo many sheep that just follow this BS just boggles the mind...but I'm guessing humans just need to be in a group...in a pack...just like animals.....and depending on where you were hatched determines what pack your in...sooo many sheep....sad sad sad...
but think about this....we as a civilization are progressing....with TV and the internet..the religeous "deciders" will eventually be seen for what they are...unfortunately not in our lifetime...but soon.
cause it affects us...loss of tax dollars...freadom of speach....our children forced to listen to prayers...to God Bless you 20 times a day...thousands of real innocents being killed for BS......thats why...and we're just baffled how so many people continue to believe in this shit and use it to justify killing.....called venting.
the technology isn't killing people...its people wanting controll using technology thats doing it.....and lots in the name of their respective god.
Remember the NRA slogan....people kill people..guns don't kill people.
