When I went to church, an Afgan man decided to join the church... When he told his friend, another imigrant friend at Burger King,

He threw his Bible on the floor and spat on him.

Do you guys really believe in this kind of behaviour?

Because so few of you reject it.

Clearly you havent heard about the Inquisition and the Crusades.. Being an Atheist myself I dont have a horse in this race. But generally the deeper you go into the fundamentals of any religion, the more intolerant it gets of the competition.
I dont see a serious solution. However I suppose we could hold a show of hands on whole has a deeply help religious conviction. And dispatch anyone with a raised hand to meet their god of choice immediately. After all, we would be sending them to a better place...That should make them happy..😷
Assuming this is a real incident.


You have two possibilities here.


1. you have religious zealots in pretty much all monotheistic religions largely because one of the core ideas is their god is the only real one and so everyone else by definition is a heretic.


2. Because of the first point you also have political dimensions to this. Entire continents were conquered and forcibly converted for one faith or another.

Deus Vult or God Wills it. Is the justification you will find behind rivers of blood and centuries of suffering.

That also generates visceral and emotional responses from people.

@Miram The Gospel should never be taken with a pinch of salt, even through believers like me. It is what it is.
