The real religions of peace

Posted on 02/19/2007 by Meryl Yourish

Yesterday, 63 people were murdered in Iraq by Muslim “insurgents”.
Yesterday, 7 people were murdered in Thailand by Muslim terrorists.

Yesterday, no people were murdered by Jewish terrorists.
Yesterday, no people were murdered by Christian terrorists.

Someone’s got the labels mixed up.

    Unfortunately, those facts do not fit in with the postmodernist narrative, that all religions are completely identical in every way.

    There is a difference between being a faith that holds peace as a (not THE) spiritual value, and being a faith ‘of peace’. The history of both Judaism and Christianity bears this out. Someone should have worked that out before the “but Islam is a religion of PEACE” routine was allowed to get started. But I don’t think anyone was thinking that clearly at the time.

    That said, I think Jainism gets my vote for ‘Religion of Peace’. It doesn’t get much more peaceful than Jain.

    You’ve got a point there. Jains sweep the ground in front of them as they walk, for fear of stepping on any bugs.

    Now THAT’s peaceful.
