Religious Tolerance or War?

We feel that the world would be a much better place in which to live if everyone were religiously tolerant. Civil unrest, mass murder, and genocide would be greatly reduced. However, tolerance is only the first step towards actively enjoying the diversity that other faith groups contribute to a society. Unfortunately, it is a step that many people have yet to take.

Pick up the Bible, the Koran, the Torah and every other core religious document that man has managed to generate over the centuries and they all define the ultimate religious goal as being at one with God. Every one of them! Then the stupid power hungry self interested leaders of these religions wrapped that simple truth in dogma that has only one effect and that is to control the populations they seek to administer. It has nothing to do with spiritual evolvement or connection to God/ Goddess /All That IS.

Religion has become a vehicle for power.

Can these stupid people not understand that by creating division between religions they disenfranchise large masses of people and in doing so create the anger that is now exhibited around the world as terrorism? And that anger will create another world war. That any religion believes their God is best served by destroying the human race is beyond sense and understanding.

I implore every thinking human being to take a good look at the religions you purport to support, whether active or not, and look at the motivations of those who are running the circus. What are they getting out of it? Most do not live in poverty. And look at who is actually using their religion for financial and political benefit.

Man's spiritual development and evolution should not be based on money and power. It should not be based on who can kill more of the opposition religion. From the time of the ridiculous Crusades between Christians and Muslims to current conflicts which are not much different in nature. When will we ever learn?

Well here is a prediction for all you twits who derive political power or financial gain from promoting religious intolerance. If the current situation continues, within the next few years a spark will ignite a fire that will turn into conflagration. Large portions of the human race will be destroyed by ongoing and escalating fighting that will end up in nuclear and bio-war. Europe, the United States and the Middle East will be destroyed. The nuclear and biological fallout will destroy at least 90% of the human race.

Maybe that is not such a bad thing, to have a virus like the human race self destruct. At least the planet can support the balance. With any luck those that are left will learn a lesson in religious tolerance, humility and unconditional love.

Stand up and be counted. If you want to live and watch your children and grand-children grow and prosper, take responsibility for what you are allowing these so called leaders do to your world. Scream from the roof tops. Write to every newspaper and magazine you can find. Contribute to on-line discussions. Join groups that promote tolerance and peace. Help your fellow man. If you are westerner get to know and love your Muslim neighbors. If you are a Muslim get to know and understand your non-Muslim neighbors. Underneath the bluster and self-compensating egos, all man and women are equal - and equally as unintelligent when it comes to religion and acceptance of their leaders.
