If people are so against "religion", and claim they are secular, then where
did you get your values, ideas and culture from then?
A pack of wolves? I just love these atheists who think they "chose" which
language and culture they were brought up in. As if every influence and
value they have absorbed was all carefully controlled and approved of by
them.

If you didn't get your values from religion then where did you get your
values from then? Corporations that sold you them? The TV?

Well, if you get your values from corporations, then you like the idea of:
- exploiting workers
- laying off and firing workers to increase profits! yay!
- Polluting the environment.
- Hiring marketing agencies to help you sell things people don't need.
- Creating drugs and products that are harmful to people without first
testing them, because they are in such a rush to start profitting as soon as
possible.
- money! money! money!

I could go on. I'll save it for some other time. I've been meaning to write
a post on our "Choice culture". Like these people who are in their
mid-twenties go on this "me" thing where they all "choose" another religion,
like buddhism, like it's a religious product - like they were choosing fries
or salad with their meal. Simply put, people don't "choose" which mother
tongue they are going to have growing up. We also don't choose our parents
or how they parent us. But according to these "choose fascists", they think
life is all about choices from the get-go, from the second you plop out of
the womb. Or as if they "chose" when to be born. Not so. More on it later.

Secular people don't value anything. And if they do, then it's just
materialism and money.

People shouldn't expect to get their values from corporations or the TV. If
the tv show "Jerry Springer" is where people look for their values, then our
culture is in dire straights. Or if they expect it to be sold to them in a
product that some business is selling them, be afraid.
And our government which has opted to seperate "church from state" is no
where to look for values either. Canada has opted to go for the money -
pandering and attracting foreign investment and newcomers and selling and
whoring out it's values like a cheap $5 hooker.
In Islam, religion *is* politics. Religion is simply ideology or ideas or
values, or what's important to the people. In fact, judaism started out as
laws, then morphed into "religion". Religion - law - politics - ideas -
values - they're all the same thing. To say your going to separate "ideas"
from politics is like saying your going to separate conjoined twins that
share the same brain.

There simply must be some direction in peoples lives - some values and ideas
that can be a beacon for lost souls.

People claiming to be secular - people who value nothing and claim to have
"chosen" everything that has shaped and influenced them throughout their
lives - may as well have been brought up by a pack of wolves. That's all
they deserve.
