    Trump's Base

    I said about the same. I want them to be more authoritarian in taking on the issues of political corruption, trade deals/tariffs, immigration policies and ending the nonsense in Syria and Yemen; but I also think the government needs to be less authoritative when it comes to work regulations and...

    Ask An Orthodox

    Pretty much what @Rival said but I would also like to mention that in a sense, icons are not considered painted. Icons are 'written' not 'painted'. Eastern. HBU?

    "Religious refusal to bake for a gay wedding may cost bakery $135,000"

    Its good to know that "MUH FEELINGS!" are more important than people being able to own/control their own businesses. Government worship at its finest.

    Please look to understand Islam isn't so bad.

    The conflict in Burma is largely ethnic in nature, and is caused by tensions between two groups (Rohingya and Rakhine), which in no way makes the violence necessary or justifiable. The troubles you see in countries like Malaysia are precipitated through Islamic sharia law- in which Muslims will...

    Please look to understand Islam isn't so bad.

    @Kirran Does the different treatment apply mainly to religious matters (conversion, marriage, death, religious rules+education), or does this apply to secular matters as well?

    Please look to understand Islam isn't so bad.

    Could you elaborate? Give evidence? In the case of Malaysia and Indonesia, the reason Hinduism is tolerated is because Hinduism is regarded by those countries as being monotheistic (which you could actually make an argument for from a theological perspective). In the case of Indonesia...

    Please look to understand Islam isn't so bad.

    It is certainly true that their differences between people in any faith (ie good and bad apples). However, I think it is more imperative to judge a faith by its doctrines, praxis, and the societies it creates. Even in the most lenient Islamic countries there are almost no practitioners of...

    I wonder how Islamic societies would treat self-proclaimed Druids...? ;) (Hint: NOT kindly)

    Muslim toss Christians into the sea to drown.

    Perhaps the same motivation that led Pakistani Muslim men to rape British children while the liberals cheered them on in Rotherham? :^) (Lets not forget rape is a human problem people!)

    What Would Jesus Do?

    If you think social justice is the entirety of Christianity and Christ, you are missing the point and read up some theology. While I admire MLK and believe he was truly a man of professed faith, this is a clearly unsubstantiated statement with no evidence to back it up. Especially from someone...

    Dear Church: here's why people are really leaving you

    Love is certainly important no doubt- but the Love of God is different than any form of love we think we know. Doctrine is important because it distinguishes the teachings of Christ; if one does away with any doctrine, then they are denying the purpose of Christ by trying to alter the truths...

    Dear Church: here's why people are really leaving you

    The problem is that the "new guard" want a new religion with a new type of Christ that conforms to a largely liberal Western agenda.
