Where have I heard this kind of talk before.... Oh yeah the movie Dogma
Quote from the movie:
Rufus: He still digs humanity, but it bothers Him to see the s*** that gets carried out in His name - wars, bigotry, but especially the factioning of all the religions. He said humanity took a good idea and, like always, built a belief structure on it.
Bethany: Having beliefs isn't good?
Rufus: I think it's better to have ideas. You can change an idea. Changing a belief is trickier. Life should malleable and progressive; working from idea to idea permits that. Beliefs anchor you to certain points and limit growth; new ideas can't generate. Life becomes stagnant.
Basically yeah I kinda agree with that statement.
HOWEVER...I do kinda agree with NOS. For those of us who do have faith, most believe that their faith is more important than the political agenda.
Remember when you die, politics mean f*** all.
To be honest, I will put my faith ahead of the political agenda of this country.
I have nothing against homosexuals. I believe they should have all of the same civil liberties and advantages ATM as normal heterosexuals and rightly deserve so as human beings.
If you think I'm an ignorant f***tard cause of this, put me on your ignore list.
