Did someone mention religion, Victor!? Yes! Yes! It was you!

You should never be afraid to discuss any important topic, Victor. Religion is a very big part of many people's life; only little chicken-head, pimple thinkers are afraid to discuss important topics. Very important to treat people with respect and kindness; not be rude and silly about another's beliefs. Most people here are very respectful and polite. Very few here who mock religion, hate priests, and make all manner of ignorant untrue remarks. Not to worry; people who do this are in no danger of being any kind of philosopher or wise man. They simply say the first things that come into their mind. My parents always taught me not to say first thing that pops into my mind. Very famous American...Abraham Lincoln...once said, "Better to be silent and let people think you are a fool, than to speak up and remove all doubt!!!" People with strong personal constitutions do not to worry such things; only people with weak philosophy of life!  

You never hear me bringing up the topic of religion here. Maybe my reasonable beliefs regarding right and wrong cause some to think I preach religion; that is only in their mind. I never mention religion, although I have said God bless you several times. That is simply a polite phrase in most parts of the world. No reason to fear, Victor, especially if there is nothing to it! Also, I only look at right and wrong from a practical perspective. Everything can't be right and everything can't be wrong. All opinions are not equal and good. I know you believe it is good to have polite and courteous discussion. If someone becomes rude...unkind...makes mean, insensitive statements to offend others, certainly you must believe it is alright to test their philosophical statements, don't you, Victor!? Besides! Smart guy like you never has to worry about someone else convincing them of anything, do they!? Guy like that always has the right answers!  )))
