Re: Your views on Christianity
I respect most religions, only as long as they are more 'common sense' than 'dogma'.
I wish no religion existed, and that people relied all on their own views of the world around them, but I think it's quite clear that people NEED religion.
It's extremely difficult to say what in modern Christianity is real christianity, what is Greco-Roman civlization, what is Judaism, what is of Zoroastrian sources, what of various European tribal faiths. So, I think it's impossible to criticize Christianity separate from everything else.
It's only possible to criticize modern European world as one thing, the church as something else, the religion as something else.
I detest the way certain aspects of normal human life have been shunned, hidden and disrupted, and nowadays, these aspects are appearing in their mutated form.
Sexuality is just one area of life, but, it has been swept under the rug, and today there are many cultural, racial and other problems which arise from this idiotic practise.
Can we blame 'Christianity' as a religion for that? I think not, there are too many factors to pass judgement on this in just one sentence. One can put blame on the church, but, at the same time, one can also put blame on the average people who regularly 'miss the point' of everything.
It's a vast subject.
