If you are a fundamentalist and you take religion far enough to be pathalogical about it. You aught to be DSMIV'd just like everyone else who is obsessed/brainwashed/crazy as shit/handicapped.
End of story. The Catholic Church all the way up to the pope has been a pathalogical corruption of religion and the teachings of Jesus Christ Our Lord and Savior for many generations.
The Church is not the will of god, nore is the bible, it is the will of humans who are flawed. And this logic is perfectly sound for people of faith. God is love. Acceptance. Tolerance. Harmony. Gaia. Mother Nature. Tara. Ra. One ness. Zen. Dharma.
Also god doesn't have a gender, and is not an anthropomorphic being of absolute power. This is a dumb human invention that is recent on the geological timescale.
If we are the will of god, than changing the church and religion to suit the "will of god" is an appropriate reaction to the evil corruption of god.
That is if you TRULY believe in "
god".
There fore blind extremist fundamentalism is not the will of god.
If it was. God would be here on earth getting involved in extreme and fundamental ways. Which he is not. I'm speaking to the judeo christian and islamic faiths (oh and Jesus is one of your prophets). I'm using your terms. Update your books and your faiths please. They are way out of date. God would appreciate it very much most likely. If not then he'll let you know with some firery mountains or some such.
And actually there are many extremely wonderful people who are of the judeo christian faith/orientation who ARE updating their shit. Thank you. There's many theological scholars who aren't fundamentalist asshats. Thank you again
