alright so I met this muslim man who was very sweet and we discussed religion and peoples thoughts on it that we have heard and discussed. He has had many more than I because of our age difference he told me the best way to approach these discussions is to remember his phylosophy of

" religions are not bad the religouse are"

he also said

" many religions are filled with actors today such as in his home country where the religouse leaders are actors and politicians and no longer real religouse teachers"

interpretation: the religion it's self is not bad but the people who pretend to teach/follow them are...

so I wondered what you guys thought of his thoughts on this because many people have said that their beef with several unnamed religions is the teachers of those religions being hypocrites. So do gamespot users feel he has a valid point and does this make you rethink your "hated" or dislike for some of those unnamed religions.

just something that made me think and wonder about ou guys.

I feel that way..its kind of like that kabllah fad (don't know if it still going), people just follow something but don't know why they are following it, its just what everyone else is doing at the time.. this scientology thing is a good example.. its really easy to act your religioin

I kinda agree. Organized religion is awful. People following their own beliefs, not what a central power tells them to follow, can only generate good will.
