There are the copts, the greek orthodox, the catholics, the many versio ns protestants, the anglicans, the ethiopian christians etc. Many and diverse interpretations of the so-called holy words. This is a good sign of mankind being more smart than you seem willing to credit us for.

Watch your tone.
And thank you very much for perfectly illustrating what is possible with the traditions deriving from the bible (if you only would have red carefully what I said you would have seen that I headed at the same direction), and why it was possible.
You are fighting shadows.

Now that might be because no one WANTS to. Fine, what ever the cause, there is nothing that prevents them except dogma. You cannot be a good christian either without rejection homosexuality. However, societies have figured out how to do that just the same. The books are just paper, it is the people that chose what to do with the words. And you are showing the exact same fundamentalist traits in your interpretation of the gospels and the quran that you seem to fear is the case with all the worlds muslims.

You are talking about institutions and dogmas only. Get your things better together next time before starting to balk at me, and at least try to understand what I said, your reply shows that you have not understand much of my posting. I wonder if you even have red it all, or stopped after the first sentence you did not lie.

You really start to tire me with these constant and unfounded religious attacks. I will discuss it with you no more.

At no time I felt you were discussing with me, or with others not sharing your partly incomplete, partialy contradictory views in the last days. You were balking at me, three times in as many days, if I counted it correctly. So check yourself in the mirror, Mr. Clever.
