Tecoyah,the Jesus may save but religion kills comment is very interesting to me. In this whole discussion it is interesting to look at one the most loving sacrifices in the History of man, in the death of Jesus Christ, (assuming you are Christian and believe the death of Jesus as payment for our sins). But then look at all of the death and persecution that has taken place in the name of Jesus, and in the name of religion i.e Salem Witch Trials, the Crusades, Persecution in Africa, and around the world. It makes it really difficult to understand others and to love others like the New Testament states, when there is so much distrust within religion and in many of the things it has caused. But there is still good to be found in Religion if we can get past hate, and distrust.
