There are a lot of things I find amazing in this account of the story and if there's anything you want to discuss do so in this thread.

Hi Lecter .... thanks for this post/video

two thoughts
1) The similarities and different interpretations means at least one of the religions must be wrong? I could not help thinking that blind acceptance (at least in my mind) by both faiths certainly strenghened my agnosticism. I did not hear any truly questioning voices.

2) What really concerned me were the little children receiving their religious education (The Christian equivalent would be just as bad for me). My question is 'where would the children hear the passionate voice of agnosticism' so they can make up their minds before adulthood?

Or is this just a war of philosophies to reach our youngsters early as possible?

all the best
