Sagamite: "My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter." –Adolf Hitler, in a speech on 12 April 1922 (Norman H. Baynes, ed. The Speeches of Adolf Hitler, April 1922-August 1939, Vol. 1 of 2, pp. 19-20, Oxford University Press, 1942) “Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord.” –Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf "Christianity could not content itself with building up its own altar; it was absolutely forced to undertake the destruction of the heathen altars. Only from this fanatical intolerance could its apodictic faith take form; this intolerance is, in fact, its absolute presupposition." -Adolf Hitler, Mein Kemf |

ekt_bear: Is Soyinka actually saying that religion in general is harmful? Islam is, yes. But I don't see the argument for Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, etc being dangerous. did muslims invade Iraq under false pretences or Afghanistan without proof are muslims the ones killing maiming and rap.ing civilians in those countries did Muslims give the world 2 world wars did Muslims invade vietnam did Muslims conduct the trans Atlantic slave trade did Muslims invade and almost wipe out the native americans in america did Muslims do the Spanish inquisition was the pope a Muslim when he unleashed the crusaders unto the world 2 Likes |

Which religion is creating the havoc? point of correction 'churches provide schools to make money cos they are f.u.c.kn xpensive' & they establish churches to ENRICH themselves(tithes & offering).

Re: Religion Against Humanity By Wole Soyinka by Limaoscar: 11:17am On Sep 25, 2012 |
Hitler is religious. Infact, he's a disciplined man (doesn't drink or womanise). Part of the reason for his hatred of the jews was because they killed christ and they were morally corrupt. It was alleged that the pope of that era conspired with him against the jews. But that's no moral justification for muslims to support the present day blood shed in the name of islam of the prophet. Ol'boy, you just invited upon yourself the fury of that world acclaimed,self-deluded and all knowing jester called fucktardmite I nor envy you o!! |

F00028:Was Iraq invaded for religious purposes? You mean the same Afghanistan controlled by the Taliban, an organization harboring Osama Bin Laden, the man responsible for 9/11? So if the USA goes after Osama Bin Laden, a man who killed thousands of people in the name of Islam, that to you is some sort of act committed in the name of Christianity? See above; the US is not invading those countries in the name of christianity. Lmao. You are really dumb. So WW1 and WW2 were religious wars rathers than simply wars of conquest/expansion or stemming from political disagreements? So, the cold war was also religious in nature, I take it? Christianity on one side (USA), atheism on the other (Soviet Union and its friends)? Of course not. Muslims were not intelligent or advanced enough to build ships. Instead, they conducted the ordinary trans-African slave trade. Did Muslims invade and almost wipe out the native Christian population of Egypt? Did Muslims not take millions of Slavic people of south Europe into slavery? How many hundreds of years ago were the crusades? So crusades that happened several hundreds years ago is as relevant as suicide bombing happening today, I take it? 1 Like |

hubreality: Religion is a man made evil against humanity; worst than clamored corruption in Nigeria. I want to ask please: "Was law made for man or man for the law?" This is the biggest piece of nonsense I have ever heard in my life. The Hindus I know and am friends with are some of the kindest, most generous people I have ever met in my life. There is absolutely nothing evil about their particular religion, if the behavior of their practitioners is any example. Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons, same thing. They tend to live extremely clean lives. Some religions are evil, yes. Religions like Islam are evil, yes. But certain others are not. |

[quote author=Ile-Ife]To such a degree has Religion fueled conflict, complicated politics, retarded social development and impaired human relations across the world, that one is often tempted to propose that Religion is innately an enemy of Humanity, if not indeed of itself a crime against Humanity. Certainly it cannot be denied that Religion has proved again and again a spur, a motivator, and a justification for the commission of some of the most horrifying crimes against humanity, despite its fervent affirmations of peace. Let us however steer away from hyperbolic propositions and simply settle for this moderating moral imperative: that it is time that the world adopt a position that refuses to countenance Religion as an acceptable justification for, excuse or extenuation of - crimes against humanity. Christianity is a way of life nut a riligon |
Re: Religion Against Humanity By Wole Soyinka by bokohalal(m): 2:50pm On Sep 25, 2012 |
Christianity cannot be a way of life for a Nigerian especially one living in Nigeria. Religion is part of a people's culture. |

So its nw human 2 look for trble and inhuman 2 react 2 trble? Or its wrong to b dfnsive and right to abuse one's blv? A muslim never 4 no reasn insult others blv bt he tends to react to who so ever abuses his own blv. Have u had of any muslim jst like that prduces any form of artwork to insult other blvs? Pls when u want to judge try nt 2 b bias. To me no rlgion is against humanity, in true humanity man shld b free to walk to any where he so plses bt dats nt d case 2day, if u enter U.S 4 e.g wth no visa u'll sure b inprsn and 2turd, is't dat againt humanity? Fightn and killing ar nt gud bt people tends to kill or fight wen they are been anoyd bt pple only get anoyd wen they are prvokd or their rights been witheld so u shld blem those who make them anoyd of witheld their rights, hence they are d 1 agnst humanity. |
