Number 1 cause of Hate, Disunity, and War
 
Religion!

People here and everywhere else who claim they know what God is thinking, or what God expects of them, the end result will be negative. Every Faith on Planet Earth does this and eventually swords will be drawn to protect the "Idea" of unproven territory.

Paul was the perfect "WARNING" to everyone who becomes a fanatic in their Faith. He murdered, imprisoned, and cursed those whom he would soon become; all because he thought he was right, when he was dead wrong.

If a person is truly Born Again, one must see the fallacy and fault of their own Religion, accepting others they don't agree with. Paul was constantly trying to bring people together in a very divided climate of a million ideas that were attached to a previous Faith. This cost him his life.

If we don’t reveal the dark and uncertain side of our beliefs, the delusion of self indignation will smother us in the deceit of our jailed god. Truth comes with research, but be warned; you will discover the very core of how this World became a bondage of Religions, including the Religion of Apostolics.

Truth by no means comes from research. Jesus is THE TRUTH. He is altogether lovely and altogether powerful. The world does not need more new age delusions. It needs Jesus.

Actually, the #1 reason for war is a desire for power by selfish leaders and the selfish populace that puts them into power. Religion is merely ONE aspect of this.

The irony in your post is amusing.

Blah, blah, blah. MTD, you're blind. Your new age delusion is obvious, and I suppose you feel that the Earth is the center of the Universe.

Research does reveal the Truth, and does uncover the lies that you believe.

You know what they say, "A man doesn't become a Sailor by staying in the harbor". Fear, my friend, is what keeps you in the bondage of your idea, where you fail to see your own faults; including the fault of your Religious dogma.

Why do people desire power? And, how do they obtain that power? Most Countries back Leaders who profess a certain Faith, and when the fighting begins, God is on their side.

Religion is the motor of War on this planet, and the Middle East is solid proof of that. When Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, their Leader was considered a "god". When the Trade Towers went down, Religious fanatics were to blame.

Look at the Bible; wars and slaughter were done in God's name, and to this day, the revenge continues.

Yep, as soon as you tell me what God said, the irony begins...

There is nothing wrong with research and when done honestly it will lead one back to Jesus and the Bible as it has countless throughout history.

Amen. What he hates most is that Yeshua says all will be cast into Hell who don't follow HIM.

So what is your religion that spawns such animosity in this post?
