The forum rules do not allow discussion of religious views (or politics or bull fighting) as they almost always lead to a downhill spiral of arguments and insults. Exceptions are sometimes made by moderators when the discussion is deemed to be within the intent of the rules.

This post appears to invite criticism of specific religions and the belief of others.

Thanks for understanding.
