I asked in the Politics section but no one in there really understand the question – they just seem to feel insulted and yell their mantras through cyberspace. I’ve noticed that even though the Tea Party started out as a libertarian movement it’s now full of Christian nuts. Why do conservative politics and Christianity go hand-in-hand in America? What’s the history here?

Why does discussing politics, like religion, bring out the absolute worst in everybody?

Politics and Religion are the two subjects that stir up passionate hatred more than any other subject. And it’s true that most people, if you disagree with them on politics or religion, will get very ugly about it.

Will religion become a weapon against Haley, Sheheen?
Religion could emerge as a wedge issue in this year’s race for governor after Republican state Sen. Jake Knotts’ reference to GOP front-runner Nikki Haley as a “raghead” and voter confusion about Haley’s religious conversion to Christianity from Sikhism. Democratic front-runner Vincent Sheheen might be in for a dose of it, too.

Does your religion blocks you from doing good?

I have to say, I quit my old religion because I found that religion before judgemental and very stereotyping. I used to believe in all the things my religion said, until I discover the world outside and found out that it wasn’t true. What’s worse, my religion doesn’t accomodate to do good to a certain kind of people, and be kind to someone whom that it condemns, like homosexuals, jewish, etc.

Am I wrong for quitting religion because I wanted to do good to all mankind and not being judgemental and negative stereotyping?

wether is Christianity,Islam,Judaism,Taoism,Buddhism,Athiest etc etc. why do we as people think our religion is better than someone elses? Are we that conceitied or are we just blind to see that there is no true answer out there of exisitance of a higher being. I do believe in this higher being and im aware of his presence. But why is religion becoming a topic that people around the world are fighting and killing themselves over. Will society ever accept all religions? Will religion eventually be erased from society? Will this higher being show his or her face on this Earth?
to all the taoists. i did not mean to suggest your religion judges anyone. i did not mean that any religion judges anyone im saying as society. not as one particular religion/
im not saying that my belifs are better than anyone elses. i was just saying that im not athiest if anyone thought that. yes im a catholic. but that has nothing to do with this question. all im asking is that will society as a whole ever accept all religions
and theres nothing wrong with being an athiest. im trying to make this question as UN-BIASED as possible. the purpose of this question was not to put one religion on the spot. but to see what other people think about society today and how religion plays a big part.
