BELIEF

belief is the key to grief or glory

each commitment tells a story,

and inherited views are a war we must lose

so be wise with each step before you choose.

I'm afraid that in that part of the world, where most of this is going on, it was forever thus. While they keep coming unstopped they will keep coming.

Wars and conflicts are all about ideologies built on ignorance and called religion. Whichever way you dress it up, religion is a tribal thing and tribes have always fought one another.

In the developed world religion fights with words, still doing much damage but a battle nonetheless.

All religions are based on reward, a hereafter, where better conditions exist. Atheists don't buy it!

It reminds me of the old adage:

If the grass is greener in your neighbour's garden, don't invade it, ask him what he uses and sort out your own lawn.

Here endeth the lesson etc etc!

In a world where the number of unbelievers is estimated to be about only sixteen per cent it is hilarious to observe
how our atheistic evolution-fixated West re-acts in horror
and misunderstanding when a few armed fanatical real believers in the East thoroughly upsets their parochial apple-cart...........

(and re-populate Europe with more and more refugees across the Mediterranean)...I mean, without going in and stopping them physically how do we stop it...(just let all those boatloads of `refugees` drown???)

At least we are beginning to get their message that belief is a doing word.
