Extremism the Curse of our Age

All too often we see in the news stories of bombings and shootings around the World undertaken by radicals in the name of God.

We tend to assume that these acts are undertaken primarily by Muslims and radical Jews,but step back and think a moment.

Do we in the West not abuse the name of God when launching wars on terror?

Who is behind all this anger? The answer in simple terms is a small group of fanatics who want to impose their views on the majority.

These fanatics are Jews,Christians and Muslims.

They all have vested interests in perpetuating violence and hate.What is most appalling is that they do this in the name of God.

These creatures are not respectful of the teachings of God and can therefore only be followers of Satan.

In our three faiths the first law of God is Thou Shalt Not Kill.

God did not lay down any caviats for this law.

The time must come when we all say enough is enough.

    Fundamentalism is not restricted to the monotheists.
    There are a fair number of Hindu fundamentalists in India, and believe it or not Buddhist fundamentalists in Thailand.
    Fundamentalism is a worldwide scourge

    When God commanded that His name not be taken in vain, I think He may have had the unrighteous wars waged by mankind in part of the meaning. These wars have been ostensibly for Him, but in reality a ignominious effort to foist beliefs on one another. More tears from heaven....

    It is one of the unfortunate things about religions on the whole, that so much agression, judgement and war too is 'justified' in God's name.

    Your post states it straight up, but I do agree with Al about other religions too.

    I find so much to enjoy in diversity and the common ground often found when we give ourselves the chance to see it.

    Amen! In the words of John Lennon, "All we are saying is give peace a chance."
