This is a premise based on the idea that all religions are equal.

Which one of the 10 commandments makes you think a God fearing Christian is dangerous and hateful?

Living amongst a society for which the 10 commandments are the commonly accepted and adhered to code of morality is what built orderly civilization in the West in the first place.

I definitely do not think all religions are equal. Clearly, there are some religions that are more dangerous than the others (Islam).

You know, you're definitely entitled to your world view and opinion soup.

I will however, mention you in my prayers tonight. Maybe one day our Lord's grace will guide you towards the light and much like Louis C.K's response to the anti-masturbation lady, "and there's nothing you can do about it!"

Don't waste your precious life time saying prayers for me..

I hope you're doing alright over there soup. Even though we've never met, I wouldn't be alright knowing something happened to you. Someone cares brother.

as with certain threads that devolve into political battles yet another religion thread has broken down into soup vs. the christians. I concur with frenchie's approach though, I should add soup to the old lady prayer circle list at my church.

Perhaps salad is more religious.

"The first Matrix was designed to be a perfect human world where none suffered, where everyone would be happy. It was a disaster. No one would accept the program. Entire crops were lost. Some believed that we lacked the programming language to describe your perfect world. But I believe that, as a species human beings define their reality through misery and suffering. So the perfect world was a dream that your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake from. Which is why the Matrix was redesigned to this."

That movie became something different to me when i learned it was a resurrection story.

It makes it even funnier that all of us say we're red pill which came from the matrix which is a resurrection story.

Maybe all of us are here to spread the good word?

I took it to mean the Old Testament vs the New Testament. The Old Testament being too advanced for regular people to understand and achieve enlightenment and happiness so they rewrote it and dumbed it down into the New Testament which became a huge success because it focused on misery and guilt which people can easily relate to.
