Quote by: HelioPrime  So my question to you is: Why is it you want christians to agree with you that religion brainwashes? Obviously many will not agree with your initial premise that religion is a false belief system so they will not see any of the above as brainwashing. |
Because I'm genuinely worried about the state of the world and where it is heading. I'm worried that children are being told horrible things to keep them in check through various techniques of brainwashing. If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck....
Lets get this straight, I have no problem with people believing in God, Jesus, Mohammed, etc. I do have a problem with the concept that according to your book, everyone but yourselves are going to hell. It's pretty much p!ssing off the rest of the world who's not Christian, and it p!sses you guys off when other religions do the same to you.
It just seems like a lot of the main good points about Christianity are being obscured by the hateful and divisive nature of some apsects that affect all of society. It happens in government too, get so mixed up in the details and rules, that they seem to miss the point all together.
