You cannot lump all followers of Christianity together like that. There are people who are the all-accepting kind of Christians (which is the way it was meant to be followed), and then are the Christians who support the death penalty. That doesn't sound very compassionate to me.


Have you ever had any Christians sacrifice thier life because they think their god wants them to? To me, that's being much more faithhful than knocking on doors. I actually agree with Dino on the overpowering Chrsitianty thing. It's more of a cult now than anything else.

And just to be fair, this:

conflicts with this:



I don't know how that makes sense at all, but to be fair, tales like Adam and Eve were meant to be parables, not historical accounts.

Buddhists don't sacrifice their lives in the name of God, because they don't believe in God. On the other hand, they do commit Sati Dakshayani if they're really passionate about non-violence.


P.S. Extremely sorry about double post. I forgot I posted before. Stupid, I know.
