I don't like the idea of fearing the consequence of not following my life based on certain rules. I'd find it impossible to not break one of the commandments or a deadly sin.

Like a 95-5% thing.

And I can respect that, people who go all out saying that they are right about everything, I cant stand

..... It's not like "break one, go to hell"

Not necessarily. Right and wrong have a spectrum inbetween. That's one if the ideas of religion in the first place, trying to push towards the right end of the spectrum as much as you can.

I'll ignore the insults and be patient with you. It would be good if you could show others the same courtesy.

Think about it in the context of religion. I'll try and reword my original statement in order to clarify what I meant. And you'll have to read the post I quoted in my original statement to understand it.

Some people believe that their religion is the only right one, and cannot accept that other people could possibly think differently.

There we are.

Has this ensuing discussion kind of shown us the original intention of the thread?

you talked against religeous debates\fights

You had a few with at lest 4 members

even if your saying "no one is right or wrong"
its still part of the debate

and then using uncalled for insults and what not

you just did what you where talking against

Which is fine and all but
the topic is if religious debates are "worth it" (in a sense) and you had a debate over it with mars\morucro (i probely misspelled that the one with out th avatar)
saying that no one is right or wrong is your part of the debate so as i said you did the very thing you where talking against

and then you yelled at other pepole
which is another thing you said you did not like


you see what i mean?

Well, it looks like this topic has crashed hard. Maybe a calmer discussion topic is needed.
