I'm sorry you think the US is evil, but we'll see in a few years down the road when Iraq is much better shape than it was with Saddam. Ah, you mean in a better shape like in Vietnam or Afganistan or Africa? Freedom and Peace, right? If bringing countries into destabilisation and chaos means freedom then i'm honestly scared of it. And please don't try to argue with good and evil always, in such complicated matters any black'n white painting is really beside the point. We are good - they're evil, the other side sees it exactly the same - the other way around. Try arguments instead of the propaganda phrases. God says "You are with me or Against me" that's what I meant by saing we become like them
Funny, probably the arabic terrorist would say the very same thing. "With Allah or against us". It's the same wrong rhetorical approach.

Since this is no discussion about the Bible, I won't come up with the inhuman passages in it. And that is all I am saying about this. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/exclamation.gif" alt="" />

OK, either you are just kidding, oBosch, or you really believe in what you are telling here. In either case you can be sure of my pities. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" />

I'm really worried. This is one of the few times i completely have to agree with El'Gi. And that scares even me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

In the deepest deep of your horrible soul, you always agree with me, Marian. You can admit it. It will be our little secret. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

It is just my opinion, and if you are really smart you know that, It is just my opinion. Now, save your pities for Sadam because he will be the one that needs them, not me, after Bush get's trough with him!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/alien.gif" alt="" />

oBosch, what Marian and Elgi are trying to say (if I'm correct) is this: Believing in something so strongely that you push away the rest is the same blind approach.
You believe in the Bible, Moslems in the Quran, others in something else. You see? You only accept ONE thing as the truth and this makes everything else not corresponding into a "lie" or an "error".
I don't do this: I believe that no one knows the whole, absolute truth - I sometimes even think it doesn't exist, because humans wouldn't even recognise it. Every belief, every philosophy, every religion contains a fragment - and a fragment is never the whole. If you can keep this in mind, you might find yourself more open to arguments you can understand, even if you don't agree to them. And this approach allows to discuss, talk, communicate, listen => bringing the human race around one table.
If a strong belief excludes the rest, it can turn into black/white thinking. I really hope, I could express myself clearly, difficult to explain. Kiya

i didn't get the hole point with the previous post. once again you will have to excuse my english(wich by the way is not very good)
forgive my ignorance in not understanding the correct meaning of the words. now that kiya explain it to me that way i do understand the mistake I did by using those words to try to say something I do not intend do say.
my apologies to all, and hope that you can forgive me. from now on i will try harder to be more clear of what i'm trying to express!!

Good, that's what understanding is about - you don't have to agree, but you can still understand why the other person said something. And it's not easy all the time <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> Kiya
In my case: nothing to forgive, oBosch <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
