I don't know about the Torah but that kind of view is exactly the same with the crazy radical islamic militants. After all it comes down to how you want to understand it.Quran - 109 (The Unbeliever)
1. Say: "O you unbelievers!
2. "I do not worship that which you worship.
3. "Nor are you worshipping what I worship.
4. "Nor will I ever worship that which you worship.
5. "And nor will you ever worship what I worship.
6. "You have your religion (with whatever it will bring you), and I have my religion (with whatever it will bring me).- Also if you make ignorant comments about my religion I BLOW YOU up with my rationale :)Beeswax
- True, it all comes down to interpretationukit2
- this seems like its saying let bigons be bigonsKiko
- There's a great deal in the Koran about accepting and respecting the existence of other religious systems, this is one of themmrrgl
- one of them. Muslims don't like proselytism thoughmrrgl

aren't all the occident religions stemming from Judaism,
I remember posting the 3 versions of the 7/10/etc commandments in a thread here,- don't tell them thatmonospaced
- ;)monospaced
- Muslims accept Bible & Torah as religious texts as well. And yes they all give the same message.Beeswax
- Why would God send books that were teaching completely different things? They are like different editions of a book.Beeswax
- So, yes, same teaching stemming from One God is a true assertion, stemming from same book, not really.Beeswax
- Probably because those versions of god are a made up crock of shit from the same people/region?aaux
- beeswax, can you explain to me what you're implying, i don't really get it, all three religions come from judaism,GeorgesII
- Jews invented the concept o monotheism. It spread to the area and Islam and Christianity adopted itmonospaced

i almost don't give a shit anymore. it's like the conflict has become their identity.
if i can compare it to something closer to home it would be the violent strikes here in South Africa. the "struggle" against Apartheid is long over, but people still seem to "need" to have something to fight for, an excuse to feel part of something, stand up against the "new oppressors". and political leaders use this for their power.
there will never be an end to this.

I'm a peace-loving religious man(this should be enough proof) and I feel the urge to respond to these shallow comments.
You clearly know that Netanyahu/Lieberman duo is doing their last salvo before Israeli elections right? The main motive here is not religion it's actually democratic elections and gaining power through escalating the situation.
Religion is just a tool, like money, like weapons, like laws, like democracy, like internet, like science to feed greed or to stroke someones ego or to fill someones pocket.
So when you make illogical claims like "the world would be a better place without religion" just know that the problem is people like you whose lack of simple logic and common sense not something out of you.- Lack of simple logic? Sorry Beeswax, but I think the lack of logic and common sense lies on the side of religion, mate. You have faith. Not logic.bobkat
- If you think that I'm not logical for not explaining my belief with objective methods that belongs to scienceBeeswax
- they you're not really making a point. Belief is subjective like many things that makes you a human.Beeswax
- Not beating on you mate, just thought your line about "illogical claims" was a bit rich considering religion often makes the most illogical claims - even when not using the scientific method.bobkat
- I agree with bobcat. This is all illogically based in religious feuds. Religion IS their policy.monospaced
