Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart,be acceptable.
The words of wise men, since there was the word, is something to treasure.
For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools,... "
And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever.
And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind
If not religion, men will find another reason to hate.
Its not about religion it is about control, one ethnic group hates another, atheists dislike Christian, Christians dislike Muslims, the rich despise the poor, the smart disrespect the unintelligent, or uneducated, yada, yada.
What is it?
Fear, being right, this gives one a sense of power, I am better then they.
I am so much more intelligent, why can they not see this?
My God is better then their God.
It is all an egotistical power trip, it is not religion it is "US"
I would like to add,
Let us contemplate,
What is our motivation?
Is it truly tolerance?
To make the world a better place?
Or are we motivated by hatred,and intolerance, Lets really do some self examination.
