Hello everybody,
I feel driven to add a thought that has come up in my mind while reading the posts of this threat:
As a woman I feel offended by the religious believes I have come into contact with.
What right did or does any founder of a religious concept have to divide humankind into two qualitatively different classes – men and women?
I wonder – is there a religious concept founded by a woman?
And if we owe our existance to “God” – for what purpose were we given the ability to feel and give joy, if we are not to use it? – What else is bellydancing, dancing of any kind, singing, music, but the ability to feel and give joy?
In catholic mass the priest chants, churchbells ring, the Qur’an is recited in a chanting way – for me that is music.
I think, I don’t believe in much of anything, because I don’t like the restrictions that come along with all these accredited religions.
I try to respect anybody’s way of life, even if I don’t approve of it.
