Was that a lot to swallow all at once?

For many of you this lens violates what you were taught from the time you were born.

From the lens Violence, Religion, and War.


Here is a chance to respond. If your anticipated response is heated - perhaps you would like to re-read this page first, or book mark it and return after consideration and contemplation.

I don't plan on removing responses, except in the case of spam or obscenities. What do you want the record of your thoughts to read?

    Religious violence has new relevance. I am amazed the White House is giving another go at peace talks. Blessed and rolled.

    You know it is almost an oxymoron that "Religious intolerance and intolerance of religion are associated with violence on both global and local scales." It almost doesn't make any sense, does it?

    I believe modern man has come far from tribes the words for neighbor might mean stranger thus enemy or at least not friend. 5*

    What an interesting lens, I think we have come a long way since our ancestors but still have so much more to go. We have a beautiful structure within our society but unless there is something critical happening which affects us all we revert back to our small minded nature. Lets continue to learn and broaden our minds, in that we will find our Utopia. 5*

    I really enjoyed your lens. As to the causes of war, I would say simply it is sin. Since the beginning of time we have been killing even our own brothers. Thanks for the substance of your lens.

    I agree absolutely. The media chooses a single view to present a dumbed-down version to the public, and you can bet the view they choose is the one that supports other agendas of theirs. Thank you for a very thoughtful and well-presented lens. 5 stars
