I do not want to give up Christianity as that would mean all kinds of vices that we all enjoy that the Muslim faith does not allow. Booze and open sex would be no no. Some devout Christians don't want that, but the vast majority of Christians are in support of drinking and sexually explicit activity in public, movies etc. Would anybody here totally give up all the pleasure we have just because a god, either Christian or Muslim commanded it?
I do believe if we only had one god, there would be less problems. |
You mean if we had one religion? In any event, Islam has a strict set of guidelines true but the flip side is it is fundamentally a violent religion. I know I will get a lot of "no, they're just like anyone else comments" but let's face it ... the have a LOT of radicals (percentage wise) in their faith compared to contemporary Christianity, Judaism, agnostics and scientologists etc. We all pretty much know that even if it's not PC to say it. People forget that Mohammed was a warrior ... and a very good one at that. The historical legacy is Islam was largely spread by the sword.
