Your denseness is pardoned. If we are to focus on one group for their

everything else that everyone worships, isn't that hypocritical?

People worship SUVs, Cars, Sex, Money, Athletes, Movie Stars, drugs,
alcohol, you name it. Many of the above worshippers have "Graven Images"
of their desire posted all over their house. Yet the world continues to
focus on a group (Catholics) that, at the very least, dearly aspire to
follow the Word of God, whether or not their ways of doing it are
approved of by others in the same sect of religion, namely Christianity.


For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what
measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but
considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of
thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then
shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Matt 7:1-6




Look at your inward flaws and resolve them between you and God, worry
less about the flaws of others.

Dr. Artaud





Pardon me if I am dense on this particular matter, but couldn't a
statute that one prays in front of be considered an "image"?

Whatever. I'm not Christian and I don't really care who worships what.

The dismissive "whatever", so stereotypical of many moderns.

Then why do you post expressing incredulity at how someone allegedly
worships?

Nihilism then? Are your a Nihilist?

Not being Christian (but perhaps not a nihilist), yet willing to engage in
a thread discussing religion, your response does not necessarily mean that
you are not religious. What religion are you currently or according to what
faith were you raised?

Hardly.

I'm officially agnostic, if you must know. I don't care to debate religion
with you... frankly, your posts have an air of self-smugness about them that
turns me off. Bye now.

Ha! And here I thought it was just me.

I am not familiar with your posts, I don't remember seeing your name
before. Not that I haven't, just that I don't remember.

Your critique of my posts is most welcome, but I "care about it" about as
much as you profess to care about Religion. Somehow I think that you
probably miss the irony in that.

You do indeed spend a lot of time telling people that you don't care. In
the future, try skipping posts that contain subjects that don't interest
you.

Concerning agnosticism, there is nothing like committing to non-
committal. Have some fortitude other than dismissive statements and
agnosticism. You can't even commit to not believing in God.
