.this is interesting topic...  Love and good deeds (saat karma)  are taught by all religions; however in real world  profound outcry of hatred based on religious ideology has done more damage and destruction in the society than what is achieved from teachings of love. it is very sad in the bigger picture.  if a person focus on positive things that any religion has to teach, and have faith on some sort of power above and beyond our senses and contemplation then that person can be called a 'good' person. s. I go to church once in a while because i like going to church and i believe the sermons, but that does not mean i have to go christian. like all religion Christianity is also good .. its the people like you who gives a bad reputation. So jesus lover you can shut the f**k up and mind your own business.
