Hey, Pantsonfire, Laugh out loud Boy . . . care to provide the "evidence" of which you speak?

Your having said a thing does not make it so--it doesn't constitute evidence.

Apparently, however, you are insufficiently intelligent to get at least two points. The first is that politicians are actually unconcerned with ideology, and only use ideology, political or religious, cynically to their own ends.

The other is that a great many people in the world are unconcerned with religious or political ideology. Most people who do not believe in god do so precisely because they are not given to taking things on faith. This sort of healthy scepticism is noticable among many people who nevertheless espouse a religious or political belief. You can't understand that because you're obsessed.

Not everyone suffers from your monomaniacal obsession.


Everyone has their own ideology. Everyone has a religion. Everyone has a religious and political ideology. Everyone believes in a god. Deal with it. You can't escape it.

You can only make such a claim by defining religion so broadly as to be meaningless. Deal with it. You can't escape it.

So where's that evidence you spoke of, Pantsonfire?

Defining religion? Do you think that the definitions that we use are our own? We didn't make up the definition of religion or religious. Merriam Webster, an acknowledged authority on definitons defined those words. Those are accepted and valid definitions. Just because you do not like it does not invalidate them. Please don't become like the Christians who do not like the evidence which is presented to them, so they ignore it or make up their own.

What do you think of Obadiah Shoher's views on the Middle Ea
What do you think of Obadiah Shoher's views on the Middle East conflict? One can argue, of course, that Shoher is ultra-right, but his followers are far from being a marginal group. Also, he rejects Jewish moralistic reasoning - that's alone is highly unusual for the Israeli right. And he is very influential here in Israel. So what do you think? uh, here's the site in question: Middle East conflict
