Our policy about religion.

[Guest guest]

Dear Group,

 

 

Our policy about religion goes something like this.....

 

You respect my superstitions and I will respect your superstitions.

 

 

 

We didn't want to allow religious disscussion in the group because

most people, being the idiots that they are, use religion for all of

the wrong purposes. Instead of an inner directed source of a moral

compass, understanding and growth, it becomes outwardly directed to control

others. When religion equates to power and money it affects all within that

society. In the history of religion it has not usually been used to liberate

people but has been co-opted to limit and control / enslave them to benefit

others designs.

 

Religion in our time is now being used to justify almost any evil that

one can think of. It can be used to support dictators, fascism, the

killing of one's financial/ political enemies, etc. The big con job of

send me your money, votes, etc. Promoting liars, thieves and crooks to public

office. The wholesale slaughter of people, etc. Left unchecked, it eventually

will effect most areas of our lives, not just our political and life / health

issues. When it does impact us, it is mentioned in our group in usually a

sociological or political way / nature, not as a way to promote one brand over

another.

 

But people, being what they are, let a little bit of their personal

brand of religion sneek into their posts. Then, rightly so, we get the

response of the opposing sides beliefs. If allowed, it would escalate

into your typical situation of " my superstition can beat up your

superstition " .

 

I will not allow this group to sink into this kind of stupidy and shallowness.

Now you know why we do not allow religious discussion here.

 

For further study may I suggest that you look up and listen to an old american

folk song many years ago titled " You'll get pie in the sky when you die " .
