Originally posted by sonhouseWe have too much religious diversity. We only need one, The Truth, which can only be found in Christianity.

Originally posted by sonhouseAnd I ask again: what do you mean by 'have diversity'? What are you proposing? Do we invent five new religions then convert Christians into those religions?

I'm sure you'd be far better off if they had gone Muslim instead of Christian.
Unless you're a woman, of course.
Thats the best comeback you could think of?
I actually agree, I prefer Christianity to Islam. Partly because most Christians are not very serious about their religion and partly because Christianity has evolved over time to accept new norms whereas Islam has not progressed very far.
