Most religions talk about being open minded. Open enough to embrace their faith. But once you get to the point where it is a belief and a faith, then are you not closed to other possiblities and beliefs by then?
I'm not into organized religion because I believe this limits your thinking. You get to the point of believing in what religious techings has written into you rather than instinct.
God says "thou shall not kill" right? What has this to say for war? More wars have been started because of religious beliefs then any other political driven war. Muslims are killing Muslims in Iraq. The Catholic Crusades murdered millions.
I guess I just can't understand the closed thinking that rides along with religions, makes no sense to me.
