Seth - I agree entirely.

But, for those who do have faith, then I believe that they should not knock it. Apart from those like the suicide bombers who are going against the word.

Out of interest, what happened to all the sinners that died before Christ? Are they all huddled together down in hell wishing they'd been born a few hundred years' later?

What you mean like Moses and people before Christ? Well they only had the Old Testament like Jews do now.

They still believed in Christ, although they did not know His name was Jesus.

Read Isaiah and you will see that people before Jesus knew that He was coming, if they put their trust in this truth they are most certainly not in hell.

Isaiah was written hundreds of years before Christ came, but they knew he'd die on a cross, and be born in Bethlehem, the Bible tells us that Jesus's death and subsequent resurrection were outside of time.

It doesn't matter when you were born.

As far as I know there are no copies of the old testament dating before the time of Jesus. On that basis I would be reluctant to give much credence to any prophecies that appear to have been fulfilled... it would have been lax to have got it wrong!

Agree with that as well, apart from those who go around trying to convert others - they're just as bad as double-glazing salesmen. If religious people can keep it to themselves, then I'm more than happy for them to live with their delusions.

Really? I take it you're talking about the general public, rather than our friend in the White House, as well as many other state premiers whose religion affects the politics of the country and, in Bush's case, everyone elses as well.

Personally I think that religion is the bane of man, currently. It's so divisive and delusional, in my opinion.

Nah, it's not countries vs religion,

It's politics vs religion,

and, morality and religion - are they extricable?

Tome - I said "religious people [who] can keep it to themselves", which would rule out Dubya and all rulers who use religion to control and oppress (see my earlier post).

Aye, Seth, but if someone's religious does it not affect their decision making process on every level? Regardless as to whether they keep it to themselves or not, the fact of their religious sentiments may well mean that there is always another agenda.
