Why are the religious so sensitive?
#15
RE: Why are the religious so sensitive?
Without getting all scientific and technical I will try to answer the forums question based on my own religious experience.I personally was fully involved and at one time fully believed and dared not question anything in the bible regardless of how rediculous or far fetched it seemed.One of the things that made me that way was the fear of God himself.The bible has checks for things such as questions to which there are no answers.The following is one of many.

Passage 1 Corinthians 13:12:

12For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

It teaches that our finite minds cannot fathom those things which are of God.If anything they are not sensitive because of what they believe,they are protective of their faith.It is their faith that helps them cope from day to day.It is their eternal crutch upon which they always rely and lets not forget that the bible also instructs them defend that faith no matter what.

2 Timothy 2:15:

15Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Christianity is especially antagonistic towards any and all other religions and world views and it's adherents are taught to be just as antagonistic and combatant when their faith is challenged.

Galatians 1:8:

8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

It is a sin to question the word of God you are supposed to accept it,believe it,and live it no matter what.Anyone with a different view is seen as an enemy of the faith.
There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
