Which supports my case. Religion is not different than politics.
Differing
view/allegiances/beliefs, zealots, and human nature underlying it
all. It's
not religion, it's the people in religion. The multiplicity of
religion does not diminish the point. One religion or one hundred
thousand, it still
comes down to human nature. As I said in another post, remove
religion and
humans will still find a way to carry on their antics against one
another.

Hell - just look at what goes on here in a usenet newsgroup.
Religion does
not even have to enter the picture. Look back over the past month of
posts.
You'll see plenty of human nature at work.


I think the psychobabble people call what you're doing "projection."
You ascribe to others the same rigidity you're displaying. They
believe, you believe. Where you differ, you expect them to become
enlightened and accept your point of view. It's not about the facts,
it's about truth, two very different things. Truth is the personal
interpretation of the facts, and is often in conflict with them.


George,
I am usually in agreement with you, but WTF are you talking about? I've
tried to understand your response to Mike, but I'm kind of baffled as to
your meaning.
