Happy Faster / Passover

Its just a story.

But just think if you had worded it different(eastern religions) ? Instead of joking about western religion

What a f$&king racist
Works for the muslims and our esteemed leader
I know religion is not a race , but it works for everyone else

Everyone doesn't have to believe or agree....but a little respect on what I would think is a "Christian's" most important day might be in order.

Just saying.

Then maybe don't post a religious topic on a commodity forum and not expect some jokes.

And if someone starts a topic wishing a solid Eid ul-Fitr, I promise to post a joke there as well.

Wd , it may turn out to be “just a story” , i certainly dont know , but the way i look at it is that the fundamental ideas are good building blocks for society . In short , (not counting the ones who hide behind the principle to make money, the perverts at the top , etc, etc.) it is still a good way to treat your fellow peoplekind and to live your life

Exactly.

I'm not real religious but what can it hurt to believe in good. Wd9, Maybe you get joy out of drowning kittens, what do I know.

Tell that to the thousands of molested kids, and abused women by these "godly" people who have now taken the strategy to blame the victims. Why not, they have nothing to lose, quick confession and they are all good in the eyes of god. It's one of the saddest and most humiliating day for many.

Unjustifiable. I'm not making excuses for anyone. But there are bad apples in every barrel.

I too have been critical of other's faith, and have doubts but like caseih's comment.

Thing is you can live by example and not say even a word about "religion".

"In short , (not counting the ones who hide behind the principle to make money, the perverts at the top , etc, etc.) it is still a good way to treat your fellow peoplekind and to live your life"

Not trying to shit on you, but.

I think with proper up bringing through the generations of family, reading a 2000 year book on fairy tales isn't required to be the template on how to treat fellow citizens and your surroundings.

Besides isn't there a passage in the Old Testament eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth and so on?

I wouldn't exactly call that a great principle to live by!

But, for those of you who believe or not believe, Canada is a great county where you have the freedom to do so, maybe that's what we should all be HAPPY about on this Sunday!

Pretty sure those pervs missed the part in the Bible that says its better to be dropped in the ocean with a millstone around your neck then to harm a child.

So if those are your rules to live by then if one illegal immigrant or refugee has done bad then everyone must be bad

Left wing wacko.

No, but if an entire organization including their leader comes to that conclusion, lies about it for who knows how long, hides in the shadows protecting their own as they systematically covered it up, I can call bullshit on that whole organization. If left wing means sticking up for tens of thousands of helpless innocent children and women, then call me as far left as possible. What do you call yourself for condoning it?

Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Red, brown, yellow
Black and white
They are precious in His sight.
Jesus loves the little children
Of the world.

Does Jesus just enjoy watching it? Or is he just unwilling to help them? Or not exist at all?

If people want to believe in God why should it be up to you to decide if it's ok. I get it, terrible things have happened. Having any conversation about it is pointless. I'm not catholic by the way, sorry to disappoint you. Is it just Christians you hate, or is it any form? Well anywho what does it all matter anyway. Y'all just spoilin for a fight. Give the boys back at the mosque my regards.
