Reply #102: And I do think that all the major religions started as religions of peace

Here's a good link on Islam:

In Christianity, Jesus taught peace and tolerance. And even Paul in Romans 1:26-27 can be taken as talking about general sex without love involved.

With Orthodox Judaism, Leviticus you can say it's talking about the parity of mean and women in those times and not homosexuality.

I just think that Buddism and Hinduism seem less diluted. And I'm a Christian.
