The Middle East has been fighting since Biblical times.  It's not like this is anything new.

Evilbob

yeah. now its AK-47s instead of swords.

Gamefreak

Kinda wierd.  I made that same exact joke at Sephiroth's house the other day.

MasterKeyX

The middle east has been in turmoil since the Crusades, it'll never change.

Good point MasterKey, if it wasn't for Christians then the Middle East would probably be quite peaceful.

Gamefreak

Are you saying that there's something wrong with the birth of Jesus?


John Wesley Hardin

Religion just seems a bit pointless, if it causes loads of fighting - terrorism, crusades etc.
Obviously there are some good things about Religion but it tends to be fairly outweighed by the negative.
I just can't understand why someone would want to live their lives based on something a 2000 year old book says.
And Gamefreak, I am not saying the was "something wrong with the birth of Jesus?", but lets face it no one knows if he even existed and if he had I'm sure he'd be pretty upset at all these people who kill in his name.
Don't you agree?

Gamefreak

I believe that nobody should use the name of Jesus to justify killing.  That's not right at all. But I believe if I go much further, we'll be entering a religious debate.

John Wesley Hardin

I want to enter a religious debate.

Evilbob

Ive got one thing to say: Jesus did exist, thats for sure, but wether he actually had anything to do with religion  is debatable.( he could have been on crack ;D)

saria..
