[Apparently promoting Christian holy war]
It is blindingly obvious, given current events, that the world would be better off with only ONE religion. War and strife will continue until the people are united under one flag. If you think about it, this has to be the endgame.
If that's the inevitable conclusion, then why shouldn't Christians fight to be the last one standing? Why shouldn't muslims?
In this light, a good Christian should be vocal, she should take action. The sooner we get to one religion, the sooner we get to peace.

Fixed it for him.
No, no, you got it all wrong Garden. See, each religion will have their different sects/denominations/whatever fight it out and whoever comes out on top will be the one to go on to represent the whole religion.
You know, I think I'd pay to see the Southern Baptist Convention duke it out with the Roman Catholics...
"No, no, you got it all wrong Garden"
Jade, are you familiar with the term 'sarcasm'? Do you really think Gadren was being serious? Maybe I will help you understand.
SARCASM : sneering, jesting, or mocking a person, situation or thing. It is often used in a humorous or ironic manner and is expressed through vocal intonations such as over-emphasizing the actual statement or particular words.
Just in case you never heard of it.
Mad Dog, I was employing sarcasm in my response. Did you read the whole thing? It was very much tongue-in-cheek explaining how Christians were going to be united under one banner since right now they can't agree. (Think of any tournament or semi-finals; that's what I was going for.)
So, yes, I understand sarcasm as I use it daily both in real life and online, and I hope Garden knows I was only being sarcastic in response. I was trying to be funny, but I guess you missed it.
Good logic. 0 sounds perfect!
Yep everyone else was making my point. There's always something to divide people. Religion, race, age, sex, intelligence, money, geographic location, tribalism. Eliminate one kind of division and they'll merely find another.
The Christians will fight, the muslims will fight, the Jews and hindus will fight and all will fall under thor's mighty hammer.
But yes i think no religion is the answer even though people would still find something to fight about.
I dunno, I think a world with no religion at all would be better. But I can deal with having many religions as long as they can. (Put another way, I don't give a damn what you believe as long as you don't expect me to believe it.)
WRONG
the world would be better off without any religion
and still, weird how there are much more religion war quotes than atheist war quotes on the net
Yes, if the one religion was atheism.
(Well, these fools usually call atheism a religion, so why not play along?)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
