But Vishnu et al are not dead. And the Messiah of the Jews has yet to be born, so he isn't dead either. And quite honestly, I've never seen Jesus walking around either, so he could be dead too.

Everyone asks for belief Emile- but no one gives me a good reason to believe in their truth exclusively. And how do I know your religion has the power to grant eternal life? You believe that, but you won't know it for sure until you are dead. Then, I grant you, if you are wrong it won't matter too much. Unless the God of the universe hates Christians and condemns them to perdition. I think that highly unlikely. But then I find you schema unlikely too.

Not that I mind that you believe it. As long as you don't harm anyone else (even the Talmudic Satanists do not deserve to be harmed for their beliefs, and they should not harm the Palestinians, who do not deserve to be harmed for their beliefs, and they should not harm the Jews, who do not deserve to be harmed for their beliefs- so toleration for all that does no harm to others, and toleration towards all who do no harm to others. I guess that is my religion.

A tautology, I'm afraid. Try again, Emile.

You know what? I don't really care what religion a person adheres to as long as he or she (a) is able to lead a better, happier, more productive life, and (b) doesn't think that people who don't agree with him or her should be harmed because they don't agree or don't want to.

If you honestly believe that Buddhists or Muslims or Bahai'is need to see it your way or die because they don't have the exact same faith as you do, then buddy, you got the message wrong. If you think that "your" prophet is the only one that is alive, and every other one is dead, you are wrong.

What is wrong with a little tolerance of the other guy's faith? What the heck is wrong with that?? Get on to something more productive, will you?

Hey Emile: I failed to do my homework before I posted that last note to you. You need some serious help. Go get some, but try reading the Constitution of the United States of America first. And stay away from me, I don't turn the other cheek.
