The extremeists want the US out of Iraq and so to recruit fighters from all over the world they put forward the idea that it's a religious war or Jihad.
Religion is not a cause of a war, it's a tool used by a few to convince others to start a war, it's the leaders and kings which decide to go to war..
And think about it, if we didn't have science, the only fighting there would be is fist fighting and throwing stones.
Yeah just think about it - fists and stones and still wars over religion :rnr:
The king/leader decides to go to war for whatever reason.So to recruit he uses religion. So for the people he recruits, religion is the cause of the war.
Alot less people would die.
No, the king/leader is the cause of the war.If you take the king/leader away, the people would live according to their religion, and most religions tell people to live in peace.
The neighbours with different religions would try to impose that religion on each other, and eventually that would it lead to?
Iraq is religon, it is now a civil war between the shiate and the sunnis i think.
Far many more people have died because of car accidents then wars over religion.
NO THEY DIDN'T!!!without excavating they don't know what if anything was 'found'STOP perpetuating LIES.Nobody believed in a flat earth!!! 17th-18th century myth.Noahs ark story theres has never ever been a global flood that has risen sea levels dozens of meters (hundreds if you beleive no land was above sea level) NEVER. its not even possible.
Although this is mildly off topic: Uneducated peoples views of Jews in Israel is very skewed. All they see is the ultra-orthodox opinions, which do not reflect the opinions of the majority of Israelis. In fact, they could be considered both a minority but compared to their political weight(even though themselves are meant to be apolitical) they are a highly sought after political commodity due to their influence amongst the populace.Before the creation of Israel there were quite a number of Jewish tribes and settlements who co-existed peacefully with their neightbours. Both the fledgling Palestinians and Jews both wanted the same thing: A homeland.Zoom to 2006: One has a homeland and one doesnt. Being born in Palestine means you're a non-citizen, unrecognized by the world and possessing few to no rights. This can only be PARTIALLY blamed on Israel and alot of it is the World's fault(Britain, America and the U.N)I suggest you read the WHOLE bible before taking parts of it and using it to bludgeon dissidents. If someone is ignorant of the bible(or any book considered holy for that matter) then directing them to it isnt going to affect anything."It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching" - Saint Francis of Assisi"Preach the gospel and if necessary use words"As for me: The unearthing of the Gospel according to Judas is of HUGE interest
Not all religions tell people to impose their religion on others, only some do.Yes, some religions are flawed and corrupted, but so are some governments.The concept of religion is fine.
Thats a matter of opinion, not fact.Some say it's about oil, some say it's about control, some say its about propaganda, others say its a big conspiracy and that it was a US who attacked themselves, and then others say its about religion.People have come up with many different reason what they think the war is about, why are you so sure it is about religion? Why do you think you are right, and everyone else is wrong?
My friend i have read the bible in fact i have begun a theology degree... and am currently working for scripture union, which is a strongly biblical organisation that has been around for a much longer time than most churches in nz, and has very strong links with anglican, baptist, presbyrterian, methodist, Apostolic, New Life, Catholic, Brethren, and many other Christian churches.
Oh good When you finish your degree, could you please explain the details of the second convenant(I think its the second covenant) and what happened to Jesus's brothers and sisters.Thanks!
By the second covenant ur referring to Jesus dying on the cross i presume??As far as Jesus' brothers and sisters, the book of Jasmes in the bible was writen by one of his brothers... I don't think this really needs too much explaining. I guess i may as well explain the purpose of the bible then.. if you're open to finding that out then i will galdly explain it to you. But only if you really do want to know because it takes a bit of explaining, and i need to ensure i have answered your question as wholely as possible.
