I had a very Liberal ex-GF that said comparing religions was not allowed or shouldn’t be allowed.
I told her that there are actually College classes on “Comparative Religion”. She was appalled.
Then there is Sam Harris.
I have old videos of Sam in which he lumps all religions together and concludes that they are all evil and responsible for virtually all wars and killing over history.
Sam Harris may have taken a clue recently from his butt buddy Richard Dawkins and followed him as they suggested Islam “May” be different.
One of these faiths really IS serious at heart about turning the world to chaos.
To reject the idea of faith itself because of the danger of misguided (or in Islam’s case well guided) fanatics, is like to reject drinking water because you can drown in it.
Comparative religion used to be taught in High School (electives!) A wonderful course that enlightened and educated folks. How sad that people don’t understand that. 50 years of dumbing down has really worked, hasn’t it?
