Very funny "D",
When you have a group of healthy capable people, with the ability of providing for themselves, should they decide to work, but rather than making any attempt at providing for themselves, they demand sustenance from the productive members of society. The only example that I can find in nature that fits this example is a parasite. And anyone that wants to force me to support a parasite, with my money, against my will, a thief.
The Elderly, Infirmed, Disabled are not included in this group, as they have no control of their situations, and I am in full support of their receiving financial sustenance from the working, productive group of citizens.
And this is no defense, it is my opinion.
As for my attacking the beliefs of millions and millions of people, when there are over 7 Billion people in the world today, each with many beliefs. Makes having any discussion at all would probably attack the beliefs of millions and millions of people, somewhere.
But if your referring to a post I started, I asked, "Has anyone here looked into the total Historical Origins of your Religion ?". If that is an attack by your definition, and you felt attacked by it, than it must be an attack to you.
This question was posed by me to better understand how deeply others here have investigated the origins of their religions. It was a question that has intrigued me for many years, and I wondered if anyone here had discovered anything that I have not. Unfortunately no one here has researched religion as deeply as I have.
If any attacks occurred in this post, it was from those that do not believe, not me.
Credibility is a funny thing, when one agrees with someone, he is credible. When one disagrees with someone, he has no credibility. And often credibility is a changing commodity.
