you mean christianity

No I do not mean just christianity. As you may know there are many different forms of christians. As a rule in the states Roman Catholics think they are the only ones that are right. They look at the rest of the world, christian or not like they are so stupid.

common andry, how does our religion view people ?
even the name of our religion means the "right" one.
i fail to see the difference between catholics and orthodox ...ok perhaps the catholic church is more powerful.

Well I have to admit that until I came to the US, I havent lived amongst Catholics or any other religion before. I mean I have met people, but never actually lived around them for years. Over here it is unreal. Christians are always looking down at everyone and Catholics especially try to convert everyone to their religion. It is unreal.

Thank you my friend, It is true but Islam is innocent of what these kind of people are doing. Since muslims are not Islam. Islam is derived from all the previous religions. In arabic Islam mens peace and mercy.

In the Christian, Islamic and Jewish faiths - God is the same. The differences are that the Jewish faith does not believe that Jesus was the Messiah, nor do those of the Islamic faith - they recognise Jesus as a prophet who preceeded Mohammed. With regards the Catholic and Orthodox church I think that main difference is in the recognition of the head of those churches. Being Catholics I recognise the Pope is the head of (my) church. I do not believe that Islam is a violent religion, and in fact if we all followed the teachings of our (various) religions there would more tolerance and less violence in the world! The catholic church was responsible for some horrific crimes throughout history - the burning of non-believers, the persecution of Jews etc, but thankfully we have evolved a bit. You can't blame religion for crimes, its man who commits them, man who shoots the gun and Man who throws the bombs.

Religion ? I never had much time for the communist ideology , but I did whole heartedly agree with Marx.
Religion the opium of the people. Take a look around the "religious world " and ask your self .Did God create these monsters who commit the most barbaric disgusting acts while shouting his name. Brainwashed bastards who were mentaly raped into believing all this bulshit that you must kill and slit throats in order to get to heavens. Just for the record my faith , 100% is in people , not some mythological entities, I apologise if some people find my views objectionable , but this is my prerogative , afforded to me by the Wesrn world civilization , to believe or not. Try expressing similar views in "Religious ? " theocracies and before you know it you've lost your neck . Religion has always been the cause of human suffering , it divides people and creates so much hatred. Religion mentaly rapes the young innocent minds who are filled with hatred for their fellow humans.
Lets have no bullshit Please on religions that encourage murder and division . No respect can be given to an ideology that preaches supremacy and death to those that do not share their blind faith , be it in Christianity , Islam , Hinduism , or indeed Jehovahs witnessess.

Amen to that.

I dont think it is so much about what god we believe in as much as what kind of people we are. There are bad ones in all religions and all races. I believe muslims are so much more noticable because there are just so many more. At the end of them day I dont think as a religion its more or less wrong or right than any other.

Andry the largest religion in the world is as u know Christianity with some 2.2 billion followers .The Muslim religion is second with 1.3 billion. The are conspicious for other reasons not that there are so many more .
