Religious people kidnapping children from aboriginal families.



Yes Sad wasn't it.
Now it doesn't happen and remote communities are rampant wit paedophilia and STD's. It doesn't seem to have a "white" cause. That's sad too.

No protection of children from physical abuse.

Which is a long way from your topic of God Fiction. Bad people do bad things. Some use religion as a cloak to hide behind. God, Gaia, Climate Change; whomever.

SinUrs of Religion


And the Priests of Sumeria
Stood upon their Temple of
UR
in Purrrrrrrrrsia.
There they looked up at
'Sin'
(nanna)
of what we call the 'Moon' today.
And there they came to be inspired by ...Sin
Thus creating, the 'written' word of
Writing
.
Like these thoughts between ink & paper,
Finger and button.
Immortality cracked across the heaven in a flash of light
and the future rained down upon the dry lands.
Behold!
Sin of Ur hath spoken.


*******

Writing was originally expressed on Stone in Cuniform.
Then, the Babylonians conquered Sumeria.
But Writing was still used to log down harvests, weather, tides and other Logistics needed to run a People's daily needs.
A few conquests later...
...a Family called the 'Jews' decided to use Writing for their own 'personal' use. By recording their 'Family Tree' - starting from great grandpa Adam & his wife Eve and so-on.
Thus a 'Family' became 'immortal' in the name of 'memory'.
Doing so, granted them a sense of 'power', prestige and a case of the haves and have nots.
They became more 'special' than the other families because they were the first to set their name in stone.
With this, came the 'moral' expression of their Family
and thus -
RELIGION
was 'created' under the gaze of
Sin (God)
above.

See - it's really just a piece of writing.  Wink

So emotional abuse of children is acceptable ... when committed by religionists.

Did you also spin that from cherrypicking three words in your man made book?

Can't even get that right. I did not say religious physical abuse.

What I was pointing out you were not interested in protecting children from physical abuse. You did notice there wasn't a comma or semi-colon after "No"?

Defeating the devil: why exorcism in Australia is on the rise

Exorcism is on the rise worldwide, backed by no less a figure than Pope Francis. In Australia, Peter Munro meets some of our foremost demon wranglers, and people who say they've had their souls saved.

http://www.smh.com.au/good-weekend/defeating-the-devil-why-exorcism-in-australia...



And what's your opinion about it?



Early days, devil was allied with the deity. Such is religion. The only certainty is all rules are in flux. . 


I wish I could find the reference.

I read something several years ago about the devil only coming into religion somewhatvrecently.

Prior to that there was no devil.

I firmly believe that the devilmdoes notbexist, it makes no logical sense.

Why would an omnipotent being allow an evil being into his universe?
It would be antithetical to the whole one god idea.

The devil apparently was introduced to have an evil force to fight so that religion woould have some purpose.

I am a Christian, but I dont believe in the devil, it does not exist.
But I do believe that a consciousness does exist that we join after our demise.

Weird, but it makes more sense to me that dieties fighting for our souls.

Religion is a persons own
Much as is your sexual orientation
Your opinion of attractive and what you enjoy doing, even your choice of music.

Some people want to force their own opinions, wants and likes on everyone else.
Is this good?
Dont work real well for North Korea.

Let people have their religion, as long as it is not harming you.

So abusive religion adults, children protection is the main aim.
Woo Hoo ... common ground.


These religious adults who teach their own religious hate to the children, this is a form of child abuse?

Boy you've really gone overboard with this one haven't you.
Why do you complain about people of belief then try and shove your disbelief down everyone's throat?
You blame perfectly good people for all the ills of the world...  you don't believe in their God but you blame Him for it as well.
You do have issues, don't you. Roll Eyes

Religious child abuse is the blame of the religious adults.
How is this blaming a deity?

And child abusers are not good people.

And if this deity is single sexed, how can it be everything. DOHL !
Giving it male qualities is just is a crutch to allow sexist behaviours that attacks female rights.

This religious mental illness, seems to be causing inbreeding and so increasing levels of severe intellectual deficits.

What religious hate? Can you show me that religious hate? I know of no Christian religion that preaches hatred as its mantra.

There are of course those that misuse religion, but that is entirely another matter.

I don't know enough about other religions to comment.

And seeing as how you have dodged religious instruction, as claimed, you don't know anything either. Wink

Religious child abuse is the blame of the religious adults.



How could anyone defend this?
