[Serious] How many reasonable solutions are there to any particular social issue?

RE: How many reasonable solutions are there to any particular social issue?
(April 3, 2020 at 8:42 am)Mr Greene Wrote: The attempt to label foreign religions as secular is the same bait & switch used by the German bishops declaring that the followers of the Norse pantheon weren't a real religion and therefore 'faithless heathen' which was then used to try and justify their actions in 'evangelizing' them. This involved rounding villages up at sword point, and if they didn't accept their new religion killing all but one, looting everything they could and torching the village (usual xtian practice). They then of course acted with shock and outrage when the Norse turned round and sacked Lindesfarne.

As for the religions of the far East the Portuguese recognised them as religions on arrival, thus your attempt to redefine the term holds no water.

I have never attempted to label foreign religions as secular. You aren't understanding my ideas at all. 

Please stop imagining that I'm saying something I'm not saying.
