        Either is Eternal Truth. Since God is Eternal, God is truth. This reality, our life here, is finite. But only in one respect..its beginning. We learn everything from others. Did you question them? Then why me? Read Revelation 12 and study the Fatima apparitions in 1917. What if??pic.twitter.com/JM2BWHLy9g

        Hate speech legislation and such prohibitions are secular blasphemy laws.

        You're correct, disagreement at least means both sides are listening to each other's positions. Hatred doesn't require such generosity

        A religion stating that their God is the greatest and the non believers are scum automatically induces conflicts with anyone disagreeing.
