Why are people from the middleast so damn obsessed with talking about god and religion all the time?

We believe in the Bible as much as others do in their 'holy' books. But our God is one of "LOVE" not hate.\nWe  put God first in our lives, not hatred. Even though many disagree on how to do it, or what name to use.\nIn my case it's Jehovah, the name God Gave HIMSELF that some religons are so busy takeing out of the new bibles.\n\nBy the BY, my favorite link;\nhttp://watchtower.org

yah....It pisses me off because alot of "christistians" are full of sh*t. They talk about god and preach this and that, then they live and act the complete opposite. It makes it feel like any kind of christianity is really bull sh*t, like everything else in this world. Maybe it is.

Almost NO ONE CARES what other people believe, but they power trip about their own beliefs and are thrilled if they can "sell" them to someone with "inferior" beliefs or no beliefs at all.\n\nSo people barge in because they think they know better.  Religions are essentially seething cess pools that reek with this kind of busybody arrogance.

Maybe both conversation and debate. Some people want to prove that Christians are wrong while others may be interested in what the religion has to say for itself. It's a confusing matter but people (even me) still participate in these topics.

The same reason people who say they believe in god without a doubt obsessively come up with an answer for every question. Because they are mostly trying to convince themselves.

People hate what they don't understand or what they fear. Isn't it peculiar to have one religion "hate" another religion. God must really love that.

Every religion is under attack by somebody, or some group... not just Christanity... so get over it.   Just believe in your religion,,, and quit crying about it.  People will always talk about what you believe in.  Get Over It.

it attracts a certain amount of stupidity.\nsome people want to be atheist just to piss off the monotheists, or because they think its the easy way out.\ni hate being lumped in with them.\natheism is difficult in that i don't have the second chance of heaven if i mess up my life here. there's also no one watching over me, no one who's my built in invisible friend. \nif i have a moral dilemma i can't just go ask my priest for guidance, or look into the bible for answers, i have to reason them out myself. \nmany people for those reasons choose a monotheistic religion (it doesn't matter which one). \nbut i like mine. even though its hard, i'm not up in the middle of the night worrying about satan. i don't have to listen to someone who i know in my heart isn't honest and doesn't want the best for me. i don't have to conform. i can make my own personal morality.

Humans have disagreed about religion since there was such a thing.Everyone wants to believe they are right.That is just human nature.Hate maybe a strong word for indifference's because when you move from that to hate then you not worshiping a higher power,, you are worshiping the devil and everyone agrees he's bad.

For most it is actually a drive to be closer to something because the obsessed ones are always fairly clingy and lonely.\nFor others they join religions hoping to get a quick path to the answers to their questions, allowing them to evlove faster. Proof of that is in the constant praying for private desires to come.\nAnd then the last group are the ones who believe just because of tradition. (Got to believe in something, right?) that's what my friend said to me the other week on his way to church.\n\nanyway. Hope i cleared something up

Some people take religion to seriously. They are called religious zealots. \n\nThere are religious zealots in every religion. But not everybody in a religion is a zealot or a crazy nut, except for maby Muslims, yeah I said it, I think they are all nuts.

Because it's so personal that it hits the core of a person's innermost inner sanctum... of religious and spiritual beliefs. \n\nSadly enough though, as exhibited in this R&S forum and other similar platforms, some of us don't have the capacity or tools, albeit biased or slanted knowledge, in order to express themselves or their viewpoints well and, ultimately, they result in stereotyping the other person, mudslinging and malicious slander, assault and battery, and end up even killing each other in the name of religion! \n\nHence the supposedly Holy Crusades of yore had a battle cry that went "Kill in the name of God!" ...No wonder the generations of those who have been hurt by such conflicts many centuries later continue to carry the same hatred to the Infidels [or Christians] today. \n\nYet no one seems to learn from History itself, but more importantly so, to abide by the lessons taught in Religion itself...\n\nPeace be with you.

because they are brainwashed into believing something and it seems so convincing to them and once they have read the bible they cant be open to any other suggustions or logical explantions to how the world etc started and they get a temper when u even try to discuss it openly there are so many bad christians and priests out there its not funny if they want some guy they have never met or have proof rule there life and make them be so called good people like they are in prison then they can go for it but if you ask me its all a ploy to get power and dominates but also relief for people that are lost and need help.

one answer is people were not brought up with religon in their life so they have no clue. the other one is there are a lot of antheist's out there trying to destroy our beliefs. and it is hard for some people to believe in something that they can not see. just need to pray for those people. and have God open their hearts up to him. Sometimes they need a miracle to start believing. and you really have to approach them very carefully.

No offense.. but this reminds me of the reason that people thinks that we are pushy freaks...\n\nI mean... I am a Christian... My father is a pastor... but I know that you are opening a can of worms by putting this question on here... \n\nThere are WAAAYYYY too many Athiest with too much time on their hands that LIVE on yahoo answers... \n\nGuarantee they'll say something stupid about this... i.e.  Have an open mind... or freedom of religion... or... that's your opinion not mine... or if your God's so great than why........... blah blah blah... \n\nGood Luck... \n\nThey will see but not SEE... \nThey will hear but not HEAR...

Because they were brainwashed from birth. Religion is such a crock of shit. It is funny how many people preach this garbage, and try to push it onto you. I for one do not need this in my life, I have enough complications! And if it is so great, why are there so many priests etc. raping young children? How ethical. Take your bible, shove it where the sun doesn't shine, and roll your holy asses into church where you can join your fellow wack jobs!

Some people don't have a dedication to religion, and belief its made of false yet myths that are nonsense. For some people they were forced into religion younger so they deny it, or simply just don't want to accept the truth. And they find mockery of christianity entertaining, and believing the bible of made of nonsense which is false its based on the truth. Good luck though
