Perhaps all of you should be thinking more about the "economy" less about "religion." If we look at history, we see that religion has been very divisive (see my earlier post about it).

If we look at what's going on in Iraq, Palestine, and recently in Bosnia and Ireland (to name a few) we know that religion continues to be divisive.

If we look at the way religion (Hinduism) devises the social classes in India, we know for sure that no political structure should really be based on religion.

I have not followed all that has gone on with your religious discussion, but perhaps what Flo is saying is that China's economy is on the leading edge right now, but religion has no place in that society.

History teaches us that the larger the role of religion the more oppressive the society.

So, perhaps we should respect each other's religion (this means even if in your own opinion the other person's religion is not a religion to you), give each other the space to worship whichever aspect of God is chosen.

This way perhaps we can stop the personal attack and get into discussions that will help our nation grow. [Although, I did notice that some of you in that discussion are certainly not Haitian.]
