Here is what I believe: I believe religion has always proven to be beneficial to the world despite all of the many horrific wars and dastardly attacks (such as the September 11, 2001 attacks) that have been waged in its name (religion itself is often HIJACKED!!!). However, I also believe religion has no place whatsoever in the business world. Religion is to be practiced either at a private congregation or between trusted family and friends or at home or in a traditional house of worship such as at a church, at a mosque or at a synagogue. If I were a manager or a business owner, there is no way that I would ever allow any religious activity whatsoever to be practiced in my place of business. One big reason for that is that I would never want to have to deal with the WRATH of the ACLU (the American Civil Liberties Union). If I were a manager or a business owner, anyone caught preaching religion at my place of business would be immediately terminated (that means IMMEDIATELY FIRED!!!). Religion being practiced at a place of business, especially in this day and age? Are you kidding? HOW STUPID COULD ANYONE POSSIBLY BE??? That could easily result in LAWSUITS!!! In a place of business, there are people of many religious faiths as well as agnostics and atheists, all of whom have a perfect right under our U.S. constitution to believe whatever they want to believe with no outside encroachment from anyone. My words of wisdom to everyone is: Do not try to shove your beliefs (religious or otherwise) down other people's throats. They have a right to their own beliefs. Keep religion either at a private congregation, between trusted family and friends, or at home or in a house of worship. People go to business to do their jobs and to get paid for doing those jobs so that they can pay for their food and pay for their shelter and also to enjoy the many benefits life has to offer. People do not go to business for religious purposes. AMEN!!! If anyone (manager, supervisor or anyone else) forced me to listen to religious preaching while on company time, I WOULD BE PUTTING THOSE LAWYERS TO WORK!!! There is no doubt I WOULD WIN THAT LAWSUIT!!! AnonymousSep 28 2009 1:20pm Here is a thought. Maybe it is better to practice the teachings of most religions in the work place rather than preaching religion. By that I mean being good and decent and fair to all of those you deal with. I think most religions each that in one way or another and wouldn't it be great if everyone would just shut up about what they believe when they are not at a service or other setting set aside for prayer and just practice those basic teachings instead. TadSep 29 2009 5:39am The word "each" in my comment above is a typo and was meant to be the word "teach". TadSep 29 2009 5:40am A good Christian must always spread the word of the Lord, in every place at all times. It is every Christian's duty and responsibility to reach out to people and teach them that Christ is their savior, even if they don't know it or haven't accepted it. The only way those people can be saved is for them to recognize that Jesus died for their sins. There is no law which contradicts this truth. RonSep 29 2009 7:07pm The beliefs of all persons should be respected WITH NO OUTSIDE ENCROACHMENT!!! Intolerance of the beliefs of others, which is actually a blatant attempt to control others, has been responsible for starting major wars throughout all of human history. WE MUST NOW RISE ABOVE ALL OF THAT!!! To all who insist on trying to shove their beliefs down other people's throats: STOP THAT RIGHT NOW!!! AnonymousSep 30 2009 11:19pm You commit blasphemy with your words. The only chance for you or anyone to enter the Kingdom Of Heaven is to accept Jesus as your savior. Our purpose on this earth is to convert all who have not been saved. This is your purpose also. RonOct 01 2009 7:25am Hey Ron, did you ever consider that you may be wrong? Or at least did you ever consider that the opinions of those who disagree with you, are at least as likely to be correct as your opinions are and are entitled to at least as much respect as your opinions are. Indeed there are some who would say you commit blasphamy with your words and perhaps you do. TadOct 01 2009 10:39am The Bible is written by God, and it is proof that i am right. you only have one chance for salvation. RonOct 01 2009 7:35pm I totally agree with Tad. Hey, while I remain on topic, what about all of those Catholic priests who molested all of those small boys, forcing the Pope to apologize not only to Catholics but to the entire world. They placed The Holy Father in such an embarrassing situation. SHAME ON THEM!!! Will THEY get "saved"? I am not even religious and yet I am still disgusted at how they could have the nerve to violate the teachings of their own religion!!! AnonymousOct 02 2009 1:37am Ron, which bible is written by God. Is it the Old Testament, the New Testemant, the Koran maybe? And which version, King James nor some other version. You know Ron, they all do not say the same thing so the bible can't be proof of anything.And if God is merciful as the bible says, how can you have just one chance and not get a second chance. You see Ron, every one is entitled to their own belief as to religion, and all of their opinions are entitled to respect. If some one, you or anyone else insists your belief is the only true one, that only you know what is unknowable, you are indeed going against the teachings of the bible and of all the great religions of the world. Gosh,I hope you have anther chance at salvation Ron. TadOct 02 2009 8:38am All who deny Christ are condemned to eternal damnation. RonOct 02 2009 11:01am In the Islamic religion, those who are non-Muslims are considered to be INFIDELS!!! Muslims insist that there is no god but Allah as is clearly pointed out in their Holy Koran. Under Islamic law, a non-Muslim man CANNOT marry a Muslim woman. A non-Muslim man must first convert to Islam before he is permitted to marry a Muslim woman. Muslims will tell Christians that there is no god but Allah while Christians will tell Muslims that if they don't believe in Jesus Christ, they will burn forever in the fires of Hell. This form of INTOLERANCE on the part of many is a major reason why war has existed throughout human history. As long as this form of intolerance continues, war will continue as well. One more note: Islam is not the only religion HIJACKED by terrorists (the Koran forbids the murder of innocents). Christianity, Judaism and other major religions have also been HIJACKED!!! One notable reason: INTOLERANCE!!! AnonymousOct 02 2009 12:17pm Well said Anonymous. TadOct 03 2009 8:55am Jesus was NOT the messiah; there is NO SALVATION in him. Christianity spread by military force all over the world. AnonymousOct 06 2009 10:56pm You know, the Anonymous who just posted the above message saying that jesus is not the messiah has the same problem that my friend Ron has; that is he seems to feel he has to preach to everyone what he believes in but certainly can not know (no one really knows, we can only believe or not believe)and seems to have no respect for any beliefs differentt than his. It is just as ignorant and foolish to insist others must believe jesus is not the savior as it is to insist others must believe Christ is the savior or they are condemned to eternal damnation. Come on guys, get real and realize that none of us can know the unknowable and what we believe is our bussiness and no one elses and everyone's religious belief or non belief is entitled to respect. TadOct 07 2009 6:21am I AM AN AGNOSTIC!!! An agnostic is not an atheist. An atheist is one who believes that there is nothing beyond the material phenomenon while an agnostic is one who believes (yes, mine is also A BELIEF!!!) that anything beyond the material phenomenon is unknown and unknowable. I AM AN AGNOSTIC!!! an agnosticOct 08 2009 1:45pm Agnostic, please correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't an Agnostic correctly say know that it has never been shown to him or her that is anything beyond material phenomenom and unless and until it is shown the Agnostic will not believe or take it on faith that there is. But he or she is open to being shown there is something beyond and thus really has no belief and will believe only what is shown to be true.if that is correct, then an agnostic does not have a belief, but need to see something is true before subscribing to it. I agree with you that Atheism is indeed a belief , that is something taken on merely faith, indeed like a religion in that respect, that there is nothing beyond and is not open to being shown there is. TadOct 09 2009 4:42am Agnostics do not believe in the sense that the religious and atheists do. Perhaps the term "believe" is not correct in describing an agnostic. An agnostic simply takes the position that he or she neither believes nor disbelieves unless or until all objective evidence has been duly presented. If that objective evidence a.k.a. PHYSICAL PROOF!!!) has not been duly presented, then the agnostic will continue to neither believe nor disbelieve. So far, no one has ever come back from the so-called "Great Beyond" to present any objective (PHYSICAL/TANGIBLE!!!) evidence. an agnosticOct 09 2009 12:46pm Thanks for your explanation and clarification an agnostic. That completely comports with my understanding of what an agnostic is and you very clearly and cogently have decribed it.
