Religions have to be judged by what it’s leadership says and does and what the believers do today. There seems to be only one religion that is currently still openly intolerant of other faiths.
Sauron

Really?

some of this might be dated 1999 but this is the sort of diatribe ,hatred & bigottry that is still extolled in his ” church” !

I find the words and thinking of Benny Hinn to be particularily condusive to tolerance ..dont you???

Intersting on this thread that no-one has considered the “death” of Litvinenko is a cover-up because he’s too valuable to the west. Show everyone through the press what that nasty Putin man can do to people and then spirit the guy away , under cover , to a new identity somewhere ?
Think i read too many espionage books ??? …. then i suggest you consider how “improbable” this story seemed four weeks ago.

kind of reminds me of something???

“Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands, and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his side, I will not believe.”

Your name wouldnt be Thomas would it !!!!! only joking!!

But seriously i doubt if it would be poss given the extent of the press coverage , the fact that soo many medical staff would have been involved, never mind the involvement of security forces , police et all….

One thing I’ve learned from watching documentaries about the “Mob”…is sometimes they make a very public killing in order to keep people in fear.
The logic seems to be “since you’re going to be suspected anyway, make sure the victim suffers a horrible death to keep your enemies in line”.

…..otherwise known as ” Terrorism ” the aim of which , whether State or otherwise, is to create as much terror and/or publicity as poss…and to hell with the innocents!

unfortunately it works too…

State Terrorism

It may prove impossible to prove who actually did the deed and who ordered it to be done.Trying to find a link back to the Russian Government, if they are actually responsible, will be a waste of time .They have had years of experience hiding their tracks.

The probability is that this will have been done by person or persons unknown with no readily tracable link to any government. After all Russia would not be the only government to use subversive or terrorist organisations to do their dirty work.

and Western europe isnt innocent of this either!!

Not true that they’re the only ones targeted, at least in this country.

Really..so how come the likes of Ian Paisley is allowed to continue to spout his particular brand of bigotry and his hatred of Roman Catholics? Why is he allowed to continue when his aim is to conquor by division and incitement?

What about the BNP?

there are far too many examples of these sort of double standards to allow us to preach to others on how they should behave .

“A lot more recently, because it’s now becoming less covered up. It’s less talked about because so far, it’s been more thoroughly hidden, not because it happens less.

again who are we to preach to others when you see the sort of abuse that was so prevelent on the Catholic church both here in Ireland and in the US?

Wont it be great for our kids , grand kids and their grand kids…

They will be able to see all those extinct animals on DVD ..or whatever is the latest gizzmo..

We have lived our lives in stiffling heat, petrol guzzling our ways back and forth, overeating while others starve , waste and destruction following us around our selfish lives..

God is visiting his wrath on us …..

Prepare to meet thy doom!!! Joke…well kind of…..actually…

We made the mess , WE.. and our descendants and now we must start to pay if we want a world to pass on to those who follow.

Islam is not the problem, no religion that is based on respect for your fellow man is .the problem is where religion is hijacked by Extremists, Zealots or Bigots.

We europeans can be very discriminating when it comes to taking on these extremists..look at Incitement to Hatred…why is it that Extremist Muslims seem to be the only ones targeted?by governments? What about the Fundamentalist Christians who preach not only hatred for other Religous beliefs but also Hatred for their fellow Christians?

How many times have you heard about a Muslim preacher stealing Church funds? Running off with a parishioners wife/husband? Sexually abusing children ? or their leaders covering up this abuse?

We christians should hang our heads in shame at the antics and “unchristian ” attitude of some of our church leaders….Look to the Faith of the Average Muslim for how we should live our lives!

And ,maybe just maybe , if we can learn to share this world in peace they can learn some things from us….Cant think of much at the moment though!

Well in an age when Big brother type censureship is so prevelant what do you expect?

PC seems to be very definately one sided !!!
