But as long as it's not pushed on others they can do whatever the fuck they want. Pushing non-religion on somebody is just the same as pushing one on somebody.

Forcing other people to believe in their bullshit......killing whole tribes if they don't want to....and so on.
That was the past but today it isn't much better. All the religious laws are pissing me off. It's outdated, we are able to explain nearly everything and to think ourselves.

Organised religion is and was a method to control people.

Yes, but, every group of people is guilty of similar stuff. I'm not religious myself, but hell, I choose to not believe and Kris respects that. And technically laws shouldn't intrude on religion and religion should not intrude on laws. The world isn't going to get much better until people get over their arrogant selves and accept people as they are. Keep in mind I'm not accusing you of anything. I'm just stating fact.

Yeah for sure, I just can't understand how some religious people can countenance what the early church has done with heathen people who never tried to annex something, impose others their faith and so on.

But thats an everlasting story....:D

Well, throughout history there was execution of nonbelievers. I don't think that was exclusive to Christianity and other similar religions.

And, think of it this way, in today's world it's to a lesser degree Catholicism trying to spread their belief. Look at the way the world is; if you don't think a certain way, you're considered a terrible being. For instance, if you don't think women should be allowed to have abortions if they weren't raped or dealing with a life-threatening condition you'll be called terrible things by the many of the same people who don't want people shoving religion down their throats, even if you don't believe it because of religion.

It is not exclusive to religion, it's how we sadly happen to be. We expect everybody else to believe what we do for whatever reason.
