Bob my dear friend and enemy (jokingly). What they teach here in Sweden is one thing. I tend to seek my own truths, because i never really held what the teachers say to be the final word and the truths. In more than many occations i have found out that what i have been taught, has actually just been selected items. When taking it upon yourself to read more in depth about things. You quickly learn that there are much much much more to be found. Different angles and other sources which brings you a more complete picture of things. Naturally one might missunderstand and missinterpret some things, because i have this habit of thinking a little for myself.
I never state that im right about everything i write or say. And i have no problem with contemplating what people might have to retort with either. I keep an open mind about things, because i know im not all knowing and all wise.
Understandably you will disagree with my oppinions, but please don't presume that im missinformed by others. Or that i am reading books written by conspiracy theorists etc. I've read factual historical books, of many foreign authors of English and American decents, as well as Swedish contemporaries. And i have done my outmost to dig as deep as possible in human history on many levels more than just religion. I've studied cultures and wars, you name it. I know what you feel about the muslims for one thing, and don't think i am a defender of their culture and religion. I'm not particulary hostile towards anything that i'm studying impartially. I simply read the facts from all sides, and try and puzzle things together like any historian would... Naturally, im not an expert on any subject, and i am but human so again. I am liable to be false in some matters of oppinion that i have, and im not afraid of being corrected.
I also understand if you get frustrated with what i have to say, it's a feeling i also get sometimes when i see things that i don't agree with at all. Because we all reach our own conclutions from studying different sources. But i stand by my oppinions, and im willing to acknowledge faults if i see reason pointing in that direction.
I'm inclosing a little P.S here as well...
"The christian and jewish faiths and followers on the other hand have always been deceitful, lying and taking every oppurtunity possible to reach their agendas. To spread their religion to other people. And like the muslims as well they all been branding those who wont accept their faith as heathens. These days the spoilt christians are laughably calling unfaithful people "unsaved"."
With that part i don't mean *EVERY* follower naturally. I only mean the established religious congregations, that has pushed and shoved people to believe or be punished. The church of today has been declawed and defanged. But with it's bloody and brutal history that they have behind them, they have undoubtedly ruined more for themselves and will always be looked upon with skepticism. At least from my part and people who are non believers in that faith. I have nothing against people who truly believe on their own though, and i don't look down upon them in any way. People have to find their own meaning with life and afterlife, i only react to preachers who will not accept other peoples oppinions. Freedom will always beat slavery in the long run. People who are under the rule of belief of something that they don't believe in with their hearts, as well as their minds will always be in doubt until they find out the truth and answer on their own. That is why the church as well as dictatorships has always failed. Democracy which presents a false sense of freedom to people, succeed because it gives people hope and a sense of security. Willing obediance, beats forced obediance anytime.
