The Label of Religion…

 

-By Jim Culp

 

Good evening readers.

As I write this, I am in the great state of Kentucky.

I’ve listened (and watched) news all day, and heard and seen all the rhetoric about Islamic Extremism and gun violence ripping the world apart.

Let’s visit religion first.

This article is not directed at persons that practice spiritualism; that I something that comes from within, not from “above” or “below”.

I direct this commentary at Religion….yes, Religion….the bane of our existence as human beings on this planet.

And rather than start with 3300 BC and come up to 2015, I’ll start where I know my readers are now. So here we go….

Islam is a religion, not a people.

Christianity is a religion, not a people.

Buddism is a religion, not a people.

Satanism is a religion, not a people.

Druidism is a religion, not a people.

Wicca is a religion, not a people.

ISRAEL is a religion, AND a people….but I digress…

I think you get the train of thought….

So when ignorant mother fuckers are talking about the “war on Islam”, they are talking about a war on over one and a half billion people, in over 45 countries, that are no more militants and extremists than my daughter’s cat is.

When Islamic extremists…not all Muslims….. talk about “Jihad on Christianity”, they are doing the same.

When….when will people understand that these religions are man’s creations? When…when will people understand that BILLIONS of people adhere to these religions in various degrees of practice, and that under 2% of these religions are “extremists?”

I’ve listened to this fucking bullshit longer than I can possibly care to, and am way past the point of caring who the fuck I offend! 

WAKE THE FUCK UP and STOP LISTNEINF TO MEDIA BULLSHIT!!!!!!

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LONG THIS BULLSHIT HAS BEEN MARKETED TO THE PEOPLE OF THIS PLANET, AND HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED IN THE NAME OF “GOD”?

Wait…let’s define that too.

GOD is known by many names….Jehovah, Elohim, Allah, Zeus, Odin, and hundreds of others. Throughout history each and every man, woman, and child of faith reveres that name of “god” just as reverent as you might do these days….

People walking around saying “that ole boy ain’t God (referring to Muslims calling the name of Allah), there’s only one true God, and that’s my God..”

Well shit the bed.

First, Johnny Redneck, I want you to define “God”…. No, sorry; not out of your bible. Define he, she, or it, and tell me where he, she, or it is. When you can do that, I’ll start listening to your God.
