    Christianity and Islam, an impossible alliance?

    Islam is 20% a religion and 80% a political system based on sharia law, - the proportions can be argued, but it is something like that - which wishes the rest of all religions and political systems to adapt to its mediaeval precepts and its followers are frustrated by trying to reconcile this...

    Christianity and Islam, an impossible alliance?

    The Bishop of Regensburg, Germany, Rudolf Voderholzer, said on January 30 that there could be no reconciliation between Christians and Muslims. Islam is a "post-Christian phenomenon, with the claim to negate the core content of Christianity," he said. "Only those who do not know their own faith...

    Geert Wilders - guilty of "insulting a group"

    I can see then, why Thomas Sowell is a hero for you - and for me too, but I'm not so sure about your Joseph Campbell quote.

    Geert Wilders - guilty of "insulting a group"

    Religious Jewelry

    I have a silver and stone ring bought from a Tibetan family which depicts a malevolent deity protecting the Dharma, this I can wear or not, but I also have tattoo, an image of the Buddhist wheel, which I can neither remove nor can anyone take from me.

    I think that says more about Islam than it does about Catholicism, it doesn't sound like a well-thought out decision.

    Slovakia makes law to prevent Islam from being recognized a religion

    Islam is 10% religion and 90% politics - I use the word in its broadest sense - I think the Slovakian government would like to ban the 90% politics alone, but this is impossible, because it is inextricably linked to the religion.

    Is an Omnipotent God Bound to Logic

    The problem I have with your assertion is that you speak as if evil had an objectively definable reality. I asked earlier (#33) for a definition but have so far received none. Looking at the present world, members of the so called "Islamic State" appear to believe that I and my like are...

    Would someone care to define evil ?

    Is an Omnipotent God Bound to Logic

    Do you think God resides in the universe, outside the universe, or perhaps is the universe?
