    What are your thoughts on the current events in Bahrain?

    I just read a message on sky news that has left me choked. 'To all Humans on this planet: Bahrain S.O.S ' What are your thoughts on sectarian violence, how does it relate to your feelings about religion? This is the sort of incident that makes so many, anti-religion (not the same as being...

    Christians: Do you realise how bizarre it seems from the outside to see you argue with

    one another because of? your different denominations? It is still the same god and same book for all of you isn't it? Why do so many Christians take an adversarial stance against Catholics (who are Christians too in my book)? Admittedly catholics tend/appear not to strike out at you quite as...

    Why do so many fundamental theists consider militant atheists as dangerous/bad/evil etc?
