    Yes, I can see how they are currently giving Ramalah back to the palestinians. Did you know that during the late 1980's and 1990's almost a 100 000 new settlers moved to gaza and the west bank... Why was that?<





    Why the **** do you think they're in Ramallah? Could the daily suicide bombing have anything to do with that? The settlers moved in for many reasons. Early on because it seemed there was no way that the arabs would ever recognize Israel so why not take some land?(I disagree with it though). Secondly, because some ultra religious Israelis consider those lands to be biblically Israeli (I disagree with this also)



    I feel Israel should just go ahead and impose a settlement. Take all the Jews from the settlements and move them back to Israel proper. Remove the Palestinians from gaza and move them to the West Bank. Declare gaza to be Israeli and the West bank the new palestinian state. Then seal off the west bank and tell the palestinians to go **** themselves up the ass. Done...............................

    why does every religious discussion end up talking about Palestinians and Israelis?



    This isn't the subject of this thread.



    To answer the question, I DO NOT think there is fundamentalism everywhere.



    I am thinking of more primitive tribes such as in Africa and Amazon, American Indians, etc.



    I think of one thing that links those 'lesser' populations... I dont think (Im no expert) they believe in ONE god, but many different ones, that influence many different facets of every day life. While us "more advanced" populations have decided to believe in one god (or have been so indoctrinated to believe) seem to be a bunch of savages compared to these more primitive peoples.



    Can't we just bring polytheism back and have the good old ancient Gods back (like Apollo, Zeus/Jupiter, Mars, etc etc)???



    [unrealted rant follows]



    Religions (all of them) suck... they just cause problems. They should be banned or at least only permitted in privacy and never, ever used as an arguement for anything.



    I also find (again, personal opinion here) that Religion is for more conservative people and people who are generally more insecure. At least thats what I have noticed. While I do go to church once every few years, its more out of tradition than prayer. Or I go to see the architecture and art inside one. There are also some figure that I find are so "un-religious" that they can be well liked (like St. Francis... and thats about it ). How can we (Christians) be led to like and adore a figure like Jesus when he is ALWAYS portayed as a non smiling and boring person? Every since I was a kid and brought to church I always felt nervous or at seeing Jesus in such a ghastly way and never smiling or fun or anything. How very depressing.



    Ahem... sorry... went off on a major tangent there. Oh, and for whomever cares, Happy Easter.

    Hmm, a very pagan perspective from ZO. Banning people from thought is relatively disgusting, don't you think? Reminds me of certain fascist and communist regimes.



    I'm not particularly religious, but I tend to think that the insecure are the non-religious. If it weren't for religion, people would find other reasons and ways to bicker about differences.

    I passed on most of SXSW, it's moved away from what it used to be, too many label acts for my tastes, I went to Dallas that Saturday night and watched my friends' band and some other locals.
