And if you want to see where the TV evangalists are wrong, read Genesis 28:

You do not owe religious leaders a thing. You tithe to help, not to pay off God

My views of this subject are from a personal experience, being that it is a tender subject I would like to omit any more arguments on this subject.

No it's not. There is a seperation of church and state in most countries. Unless you are a barbarian (which had pagan gods btw) usually you don't just attack another country unless you have some cause. Again, who would question a King anyway? Marshall law would dictate you dying if you questioned a kings authority. I would have understood if you said president, but then again, that's what the check and balance system is for.

For example the crap going on in the Middel East, even tho its mainly the radical Muslims do the bombing and what not they are doing it in there gods name. Also I use the term "king" loose, basicaly meaning anyone in power over a group of people.

Also I know the Keran(sp?) never says for them to do any this, but perverted faith is still faith none the less.

It's called faith. And I won't dog it. If people believe it and it fills the void in their life, then neither should you. Unless you have proof it's farfetched, then keep your opinions to yourself. Remember, God Transcends our understandings.

I think you miss understand me. I wish no ill will on thoes who belive in religion nore do I wish to change there minds of such.I just dont agree with it. I do have friends that are religious, we just avoid this subject.
