I agree with you. Think of how many millions would live full lives without religious problems placed on them. Think of how many people will suddenly have a high quality of life since they are no longer sending their hard earned money to mega-church bank-accounts. The issue is so clear to me. Right my brother right on. The world could live in such perfect harmony. Right and wrong could be the new laws to follow, withouth the intervention of mythical persons watching over you waiting to punish you for not accepting them as the truth.

The important thing is not whether religions or Gods are right.  It is that people have the freedom to believe and worship what and how they wish.\n\nSadly most religions then spoil this freedom by trying to preach and dictate to those who do not share their beliefs.   The day cannot be far away when this practice may be made unlawful.\n\nIn the UK there is a law of harassment which could conceivably be used against persistent religious pushers.

We'd have to ban all free thought while we were at it.  Good thing there will always be those who stick up for intellectuality, defending the rights of religious minorities.

I don't think anyone ever said that you can't talk about religion.  You are not supposed to make laws based on religious beliefs.  If we did that, very little would have changed in our country's history.  I agree with you on the Ten Commandments thing.  I think you may be preaching to the choir, so to speak.  But as they say, "The sqeaky wheel gets the grease."  That doesn't make it right, though.  I don't see a question here, so don't be surprised if you get reported for ranting, because you aren't really supposed to do that here.

You have a good point there, in fact lets get rid of anything which maybe deemed as religious and that would stop all fighting as well as crulty in the world. Only trouble then, we would all have to live together happily. Good question, it would be great if the so called leaders of the churches and the worlds countrys take few minutes to think over this one.

ALL religion should be kept out of politics. PERIOD. its just bad news. plus, how is it fair that christian holidays are federal holidays, but buddihst, muslim, jewish, pagan, wiccan, ect ARENT? politics+religion= bad news. just look at all the countries that are ruled by religion. religion has no place in politics, in my opinion

At this very moment....\n\nI would make the religious fanatics...of all religions....just back off and cut it out.  Stop trying to force your beliefs and politics on the rest of us.  Atheists too.  We all can believe what we want, why all the radicalism...here and abroad?

I am very upset hearing that Muslim women are banned from wearing head scarves in France and now the Dutch are ready to ban women from wearing the traditional Burqa (covering of the body with a coat and the face). These countries are basically telling everyone that Muslims have no right to do what is in their religion. I mean, how narrow minded can these people be? Seriously! These countries are taking away the freedom to practice religion and discriminating against Muslim women (and men) because a few idiotic people claiming to be Muslim have attacked the US. The fanatics should be caught and put in jail but don't tell everyone who are not fanatic Muslims NOT to wear what they want to wear or have to wear as per their religion. \nWhat would happen if the Christian and Catholic churches were banned from having their nuns cover themselves from their head to toe? What about if the Jews were told that they could no longer eat Kosher meat and had to eat non-kosher food because Kosher was banned? \nOf course, the people in these other countries are narrow minded folks who think they are right and everyone else is wrong. How much of this can anyone take? It is NOT right to take away a person's religious freedom because of security. I agree that there needs to be precautions but women can wear hijab and other police women can check them if they need to when they go to airports or other areas that they need to do security checks. Telling Muslim women (and it doesn't matter how many of them cover or not) is basically stating to the world that Muslims have no right to practice their religion freely in public (and in private if they go too far). \nFrance and the Dutch have gone too far with their bans. They need to stop persecuting those who have done nothing to them. Look at their own countries....there are people who are not Muslim who have tried to hurt them and get away from the security. So stop screwing Muslims over with these crappy laws!

Whoa there knobstick, your words make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!  I don't think that cartoons of religious figures should be printed or sketched if it means the same thing as shouting '" Fire" in a crowded theater, ie...ignorant protesting with killed persons involved.\nBut where do we end the censorship?  In India we could never even look right or left, heck they worship everything there don't they? Air, frogs, matchsticks?
