  1. They've gotten in the way of stem cell research

    Not really. They try to stop fetal stem cell research only. That is solely due to the fact that that research is conducted solely on aborted fetuses. Non-fetal stem cells are far more plentiful, do the exact same stuff as fetal cells, and doesn't require an abortion to take place.

     

    Although I'm against using abortion for the sake of not having a baby, I thought that fetal cells were supposed to work better?

  2. America invade countries all the time to get oil (no question about it) but they say that "we want to help". Yeah right..

     

    But we do want to help. Tell me, have you ever seen a starving Middle Eastern boy looking at you, and you can tell that he's begging for help but he can't say it to you because he doesn't know how to speak your language, and that him and his family live in constant fear of the Taliban. It tugs on your heartstrings and MAKES you want to help.

     

    I mean the US are all such "proud" christians, and the muslims are all terrorists (according to the US).

     

    Those are misconceptions. I think we dropped the whole "Proud Christian" appearance sometime after the Cold War. The reason why some of us believe that Muslims = terrorists is probably because after 9/11, we became suspicious of anyone who even looked REMOTELY Middle Eastern and xenophobia feeds on that. The same thing happened after pearl harbor (Japanese detainment camps) But not everyone is like that.

     

    But tell me something, what has ANY religion done good in the last years

     

    If you ask me, little. They've gotten in the way of stem cell research, which could benefit humanity greatly, and in Uganda recently they're influencing the government to punish homosexuality with the death penalty, but they've done some good things. (I.E. Charity, Youth centers)

     

    And religions fight eachother to prove which one is the right one?

     

    Some people can completely loose the capability to be reasonable when something they believe in is challenged. Not all, but some.
