But that's not even the point. We're not discussing religion here, it is not me who brought this topic, and if you or linca see the faith or the church as an instrument of oppression, as something wrong, or a delusion, this is your right to free thinking. The terms you put it here bring you on the border of free speech - I'm not sure delusional is not an insult according to the law. But it's the sense of intolerance that disturbs me. Can you really not conceive that amongst the deluded and oppressing, may be good people, helping those in need ? How can you generalize like this? Even when you had something personal against religion or the catholic church, airing this on a public forum borders hate speech. The same kind Helen was outing when calling names all those against Prop.8.
On te other hand, if this is a forum whose established, official political line is so, I'll gladly spare you of my presence.
I was looking for a forum more about mutual respect, freedom to not be judged for personal values, rational argumenting, basic tolerance. Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last! (Martin Luther King)
