Why is that?

If you lived in Sri Lanka, where the Tamil Tigers have been murdering people for decades, you might have a different opinion on that.

Yet Wiki says:

The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam is a secular organization, regarding the religious beliefs of its members as private matters.

I’ve no doubt some of those people might be Buddhists (even though it contradicts one of the Noble Truths, but whatever) but there’s a difference between using religion as a catalyst for violence (such as Islamic terrorirsts and Christian Crusaders did and do) and merely being religious.

Whatever the catalyst, in the end, it’s all a matter of us vs them. Religion is just one of the strongest catalysts out there, these days – failing there, there’ll be others: race, ideology, philosophy, whatever.

Anyone from any religion can say so about his beliefs. Prove I’m wrong if I am.

You agree that belief in an afterlife is a contributing factor in deaths worldwide, but you evade by stating that it is incredibly different from a mother killing her children. Explain exactly how it is different. I don’t think it is, and don’t think you can defend that position logically. I will need you to explain how and why, because simply stating it doesn’t convince me in the slightest.

But that scenario, in my estimation, is incredibly different from a mother suffering from postpartum depression. In the latter scenario, I personally don’t think that belief in an afterlife can be blamed, and that’s a result of studying psychology.

Contributing factor. Not entirely to blame, contributing factor. I have a hard time believing you can’t grasp this concept. I think you are just trying to wiggle out of the inescapable reasoning. A mother suffering from postpartum depression who did not belief in an afterlife may still kill her self, and perhaps even her children, but the chances in my opinion go down greatly. I can sense that you want a way to not agree with this, but you really should take a moment to think it through. If that mother did not believe in a happier place to send her children, the chances of killing those children decrease. I simply cannot see how you could argue against that point in an honest manner. They often leave suicide notes, and mention that they want their kids to go to heaven. See? Conclusive proof of my point. In fact you can search for those news items and maybe even read some of those suicide notes.

You have not got a leg to stand on. Please be honest and just concede the point.

You should not have to do that. You should be able to just admit that belief in the afterlife was a contributing factor in murder/suicides without needing to equivocat and try to ’save face’ for your belief system.

Judging all of Islam by the those messages is kinda like judging all of Christianity by the messages Fred Phelps

I wasn’t talking about all Islam. My comments were very specific.

If a group of people is paradise-bent on killing you (which Islamic militants ARE), it’s legitimate to feel fear in response.

Answering in a yes or no fashion isn’t helpful, in my view, because speaking in such sweeping generalizations without noting the nuances of various situations.

But, yes, belief in an afterlife does contribute. The easy example is Muslims who believe they will get extra perks in heaven if they die a martyr’s death.

But that scenario, in my estimation, is incredibly different from a mother suffering from postpartum depression. In the latter scenario, I personally don’t think that belief in an afterlife can be blamed, and that’s a result of studying psychology. Put simply, mental illness presents itself in the ideologies that are familiar to the person suffering from the illness. That is, a Christian who’s a schizophrenic will have delusions full of religious ideas and symbols. Does that mean that Christianity “contributed” to his/her illness? No, not at all. It’s simply that the person’s illness expresses itself through what the person is familiar with.

So, even though the short answer is, “yes,” I don’t think that answer really gets at the heart of the issue.

Just waiting for you to back up your assertion.

Sadly enough for Europ this is hard reality.
Europ has big problems with emmigrating muslims and they do not adapt to our culture they expect us to adapt to theirs.

In the fictional land of “Europ”, this may well be the case. However, in the real-life “Europe”, nothing could be further than the truth. Only a tiny proportion on Arabic immigrants don’t integrate completely into society.
