They attempted to reinforce belief in that god by completely rewriting their traditional religion and turning it from a form of polytheism into a form of henotheism-monotheism. Now, the idea that they actively rewrote their own religion sounds a bit fanciful, but it's generally agreed that Judaism (and, therefore, Christianity) evolved from Semitic polytheism.
This would be it

Re: The Different Religions Of Mafia Players From Around The World
Okay, i read all your comments. Thanks for backing me up guys. This guy was a total jerk.....i just wanted to give my opinions and my beliefs. I didnt realize people would be so offended by all of it......and i dont mean to condemn anyone to Hell, but when you basically say that you are without sin, we all know that that is garbage. The bible says that we are all sinners reference 1 John 1:8 For if we say we have no sin, we decieve ourselves, and the truth is not in us." reference romans 3:10 "as it is written, there is none righteous, no not one". reference romans 3:23 " For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God". See? i can use these bible verses to pretty much proof that we are all sinners. I just wanted this to be a forum where we could share our personal beliefs nothing more, nothing less. If you cant handle it, then please leave the forum. I only wanna talk to like-minded people who want to share theyre story. and yes the bible is the 100% word of God. and thats what i stand on. if you expected me to use anything other than the bible, than your sadly mistaken. If you guys only knew the power of Jesus Christ, you would be a believer too! Jesus casted out demons, he healed the sick, cast out lepers, walked on water, turned water into wine. ANDDDDD he was the prophesied messiah. btw you can look up bible prophecies that have been fufilled that is proof too. In case you wanted to know.....im sure i can pull up a website or two to proove it. or you can look up JD Farag on youtube he has some good stuff too! Anyways. im sorry to everyone that i offended. May God be with you all <3

This thread was doomed to crash and burn the moment it was conceived lol. Religion is such a sensitive topic, I don't know what else you were expecting, opening a discussion thread to public. You'll get two main kinds of people, (1) those who want to propagate their own faith, and (2) people who want to shit on other people's beliefs.
Most casual believers or non-believers wouldn't bother discussing matters of faith at all. The people who would be most likely to contribute to such a thread are fervent believers or disbelievers. Even in the case of the former, there are many different faiths, so even if OzyWho didn't shit on your beliefs, you may still have gotten into an inter-religion argument.
Alternatively, in the absence of conflicting faiths or disbelievers, you would have ended up with a group of like-minded Christians and this would've turned into a Christian worship group.
A discussion about different religions was never gonna work out. The nature of most faiths prevent the existence of others; they are mutually exclusive. How can one claim to be a true believer of one faith, when you are willing to tolerate the blasphemies of other faiths?
You would've ended up with either inter-religion conflict or an intra-religion worship group.
Maybe you were looking for fellow Christians to join in your worship. Maybe you were looking for followers of other religions so that you can prove to them they're wrong. Maybe you were looking for non-believers to convert. Or maybe, it's what it says on the tin and all you wanted was to find out more about other religions of Mafia players; in which case you must have been really optimistic that any other outcome other than this would've happened.
Whatever the case, this was never gonna work out.
* * * * *
Also, just so I don't go off-topic: I'm a free thinker and I don't want to talk about why I'm a free thinker.

Re: The Different Religions Of Mafia Players From Around The World
I don't shit on other religions, yes, i maybe don't believe in their religion, but i don't shit. Also, if you're going to say about crusades, it's catholics, my country is orthdox and yes, we was defending against catholics, ever through it's a christianity too. Mind, that musulims wasn't always terrorists also.
The thread resulted as pepole dividing by 2 groups: (1) Christian Scumbags, (2) Atheist Scumbags. Yes, both are scumbags, because they started a war of nonsense, big nonsense. Through, i wasn't on either atheism and christian sides, because all of these wasn't correct. Why? Because atheists started the war (as always...) and christian pepole supported the project of starting a war!
I wasn't partipicating in this conflict, because most of pepole was shitting in this thread. Reading this thread will result as getting some cancerous brain cells.
And yes, i'm not christian, fuck off.

I stopped reading at page 3/4 because it was getting cancerous.
There are cool-headed, chill and friendly people like Mag and Rata who just want to discuss things because it's interesting, but they are exceedingly rare.
For matters of faith (or politics), due to the sensitivity of the topic, you usually get the types discussed in my earlier post (#209).

Re: The Different Religions Of Mafia Players From Around The World
I'm not religious. But my father is a muslim. My mother converted to Islam (after having a christian upbringing) but her faith waned after my parent's divorce.
On the topic of religion though, I always found it super interesting how religions develop and come into existence, but I've never actually properly researched it.
I'm making some ignorant generalizations, but it seems that religions are, to an extent, molded by their environment. A crude example of this would obviously be how people who live far from the coast are clearly never going to develop any gods related to the sea. But we can make some more interesting conjectures than that. For example, perhaps the following are true:
-Autocratic empires are more likely to be monotheistic, because emperors will want to homogenize religious practices so the people of an empire to gain a sense of shared identity that transcends their differing cultures. A religion with many gods has many dimensions and thus encourages more branches and more divisions (which is inconvenient in an empire). Furthermore, gods believed in by the people who have been conquered will be regarded as less powerful and lose popularity over time. Thus reducing the "god-pool" (lol XD)
-Religions founded in more urbanized civilizations are more likely to be human-centric. For example, a religion founded in a tribe that lives among the trees n shit is going to view the universe at large as having less to do with humans. They'll view themselves as a small part of a larger system. On the other hand, a religion founded in a place where there's humans and human structures for miles in every direction is much more likely to view humans as the center of the universe and make creation stories revolving around humans (i.e. god made the world in 6 days for humans to propagate, perhaps to test whether they're worthy of heaven)
It'd be interesting to know if someone could reasonably offer evidence for such conjectures by studying a large sample of world religions.
(sorry if these points have already been made. I only read the first 6 or so pages lol)

Exactly. When you really start to ask yourself what are religions and how could they have been formed you come out with conclusions that, for me, make them appear as what they truly are, a natural product of a live being that has been given the power of thought (which is a blessing but a curse as well). In my opinion religions are just a way to explain things that cannot be explained, specially powerful events such as volcano eruptions or things such as the Sun and/or to find something to dedicate your life to and not feel empty. It is also interesting that people that go through hard moments in their life sometimes become religious in order to not feel devastated. The idea of a merciful God that is there to help you no matter what with infinite love is quite appealing. Damn, if I felt bored maybe I would join a religion, who knows :P
Also, I feel stupid when I try to give my thoughts on a subject when you are all so good and informed >> Forgive my 17 yr old mind.

Well yes, you're kinda right on this, which is why I say atheists are the most pious people. But atheism is to not believing in anything, in its proper sense. But only a few people realize they believe in not believing.

All due respect, I'm siding with rumox here. I think Ozy and esp Taunt were acting way out of line and seriously berating Rachyl, who I will agree was not exactly replying very well.
I'm a very logistic person though, and while I can see their point, they presented it so poorly that it really made it suck. It's like one of those anti-abortion protesters. Point, but presented so poorly that it doesn't help. But that's a different topic, don't discuss that here please.

we have different definition of sins.
for me anything not against the law is not a sin. and by law i mean actual laws. like the law of france. but not shariah law or what pedophile law from some us states where children under age can marry adult men.

for me any religion is just not right if there are more than 1 believers of that religion (FSM excluded)
It's just like freedom of speech.

Lol Taunt is just... on another way. Which is why I'm going to make a thread about communism! :D
But you're looking at things from a non religious angle. And it's very understandable... but the very idea of faith is based on a lack of arguments, sadly. Also will make a thread about abortion... but later, we got enough topics to discuss for now.
