The lucky thing about protestants is that you don't have to go to confession. What a joke that was, did they really expect me to tell them about all the fires I started?greenmark wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2024 6:00 pmWell I was lucky. I came from a protestant family, but religion was never forced on me. "make your own mind up" was the guidance. How lucky was I?Derek27 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2024 5:55 pmI believed in god when I was three or four, and that he requires you to be good to people. If I was talk that he requires a certain group of people to be exterminated, I would have believed that - that's religion!greenmark wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2024 5:46 pm
Religion is not repsonsible for the actions of things like Putin or the Twin Towers pilots. They make/made their own decisions.
OK warped religious belief/indoctrination may have played a part. But the bottom line is if you kill someone you better have a very good reason IMO. Someone telling you to do it is not a good reason and Putin --- well it's now clear he is plain nuts with no moral justification (religious or otherwise) for his actions.![]()
