I don't understand any religion for that matter.

Tarvuism:

I am so fuckin baffled

Islam. Is it the eastern version of Mormonism where wannabe alpha males marry submissive wives who want to be abused with their misery condoned by the religious text?

How about the treatment of women wanting to be equal to men, homosexuals wanting to lead a life of dignity and adulterers expressing their marital dissatisfaction in Islam? Why is their misery and death by stoning accepted by the religion while any military movement by Israel is considered justification for jihad?

I have never understood Islam and would love to understand what I consider are gross, unapologetic hypocrisies from those who prescribe to the Islamic faith.

all of them cause they contradict there own beliefs

i do not understand poor people

they think equality should be there but at the same time they say people who work hard for a better life and have money should pay for their sorry asses,what kind of equality is that

also slaves crying that other people made their life in misery,they did they even submit to slavery in the first place.they should blame their fore-fathers,themselves and their own people

i also don't believe in relgion which say GOD will come and intervene their lives so that they can live better

GOD gave us life,thats great as it is.if we still can't do anything with it and expect help,its pathetic

Scientology. It was made up by a science fiction writer, who has made some memorable quotes as "I'd like to start a religion. That's where the money is!"

I try to be tolerant of religious beliefs, where they aren't being forced upon others, but I just can't bring myself to see Scientologists anything other than criminals or victims of crime, depending on their rank in the cult.

This is a thread about religion, ripping on poor people is completely off topic.

I can understand how people fall into cults but I feel sorry for members of them - the extremely cult like ones such as scientology and Westboro essentially abuse and brainwash their followers.

it also said cultures,some cultures are so low and they don't get with the times and then become poor and crib

The basic premise of religion from my understanding is believing in the breaking of natural scientific laws.

Therefore, I don't understand the fundamentals of any religion. Scientific findings debunk old religious explanations one at a time as time passes.

However, some of the values taught in religion like Sermon on the Mount is pretty useful. It's a shame that very few religious people actually take that to heart and would rather shove Revelations down peoples' throats.

*facepalm*

Two things. 1) Being poor is not a culture. 2) Culture isn't mentioned in the OP, cults are. Cults are an extreme form of religion.
