Is the internet religions worst nightmare?
542106
I do think the Internet is contributing to the decline of organized religion.  Before the 'net' the only people who really went to libraries to look in religious texts were people who planned on making it their life's calling.  Now like you said anyone can look at all aspects of it right from their own home.. for most the shine is off.. the mystery is gone.\n\nReligion in some form or another will always exist and I view these changes as a good thing.  Human beings were never meant to be stagnant.. we need to grow and change.  \n\nOf course many religions today will look at this as totally destructive and will contribute to some negative factor that their own religion ordains.

I am not concerned about the survival of religions. I wouldn't worry if none of them survived. But I am concerned about the survival of humankind. Will these religions let it survive?

I wish the controller from yahoo would answer it!!  You are right tho, i have seen loads of crape against a particular community and a particular religion which should have not been allowed in the first place.

I'm right there with you.  Too many people on this site have their head shoved so far up where the sun don't shine it's SCARY.\nChildren, your homework for tonight is to read this article:\nhttp://www.religioustolerance.org/isl_war.htm\nNow get to work.  You have alot of ignorance to get rid of.

My icon rocks. First, its says that Islamic threats have not intimidated, I hold free speech highest in the pecking order of civil rights.\n\nNext, Ive receieved more death threats as a result of my Icon which must be a good thing coming from religious wacko freaks.\n\nAlso, I show respect for the brave Danish cartoonist who knowingly, IN ADVANCE, risked his life for free speech and will be looking over his should for life.\n\nFinally, Islamic insanity is the eptiome of religious insanity and thus to mock Islam, with all its intimidation, is to put me on the top of the agnostic/atheist pecking order by a long shot.

all relgion is bad to me because they restrict a person's right to be who they are. there are too many mixed messages which are unrealistic  for people to try to follow.

I thought the site was extremely interresting and even book marked it for later reading.  When I am home alone i may even listen to some of the audio.  Of course, some of it i found far fetched and hard to comprehend; however, some of it made since and requires further research.  Thank you very much for posting it.  I appreciate any chance at learning about other peoples beliefs and religions.  I think part of the problems btw modern Christians and other religions is that most Christians will not take the time to listen and study other belief systems.

YES the internet can be that bad!\n\nThat's why I never allow my child to go online unsupervised.\n\nI also know a 13 year old that in six months of being online unsupervised thinks she is a goth vampire, had her lip pierced and wants to kill her mom. She had smaller issues before this, but most recently hopsitalized explained that she just copied other people she thought were cool. \n\nI've met a guy online, became friends online, and he started stalking me! Sending me gifts and flowers and all that at work, trying to get me to move in with him. It was partially my fault because my relationship was having problems and he was easy to talk to, but it went way overboard. He even called the hospital when my daughter was admitted to ask how she was doing - while we were in the emergency room - after calling work to ask where I was.\n\nOur local news is always busting someone adult guy for trying to meet up with a teenager through online.\n\nScary stuff.\n\nTrust me, it CAN be that dangerous. \n\nBut also remember, it can be a great learning tool and great for information, science projects etc.

In short, yes. But it also enslaves people to irrationality and denial.\n\nOne thing I have learned about most religious people is that, facts, reality, commonsense, rational thinking, and the like, have no place in their lives. You can not reason with them - it's the great mystery of human behavior.

I think the best religion is the one Jesus told us to follow. I think the worst religion is the one that is talked into the ground and yet not followed. Therefore all religions are the best or worst depending upon the person who is the example of it.

Look these sites and Judge... I think it is bad. however, it doesn't mean other relgions are good.  we have to find the good things and we have to search for God.

no its just religious fanatics in general - its the worst when somebody thinks their kind of religion is superior and go violent to prove it - whatever religion it is, makes no difference

Not only have I received many death threats, but the most graphic told how I would have my throat slashed with a 12 inch knife. And yes, he professed to be a Christian, after calling me a demon, the anti-christ, and the leader of the R+S atheists.\n\nI don't hold his lunacy against Christians though. He's just a troll.

I totally agree and I don't think you are downing religion; at least I don't feel you are.  There are religions out there that can terrify little kids, even big kids!  And even I start getting paranoid when people come to my door and spout evil things that are going to happen any time!  There is a time and place for religion and personal beliefs, but pushing it on kids is a bad idea.  Exposing them to your beliefs is one thing, but letting them make their own choice is another.
