then jesus goes around telling you that if you don't help the poor and feed the hungry you're going to hell:
"كنت غريباً فما آويتموني، وعرياناً فما كسوتموني"

isn't that teaching you how to live? our souls, our afterlives are hostages, and these are the demands, you have not been given freedom to choose wether or not to do these, it's clear, كنت جائعا فما اطعمتموني you don't feed the hungry, you go to hell, you get rich, you go to hell, you desire a woman, you have sinned

islam is not my religion, I don't have quotes, but then alcohol is forbidden, veils are essential, don't eat pork, don't have sex before marriage. the veil thingy is again as in christianity, a way to forbid lust and sexual desire


I can argue that economicly and biologicly religion fails big time. economicly, if we help the poor and the handicapped all the time, and we give most of our money for that, we would be promoting poverty, this poor person who does not have a job and probably does not know how to perform a job, now thanks to you, instead of diying, he will now grow and breed children, more parasites on society, more mouths for you to feed.
back in jesus's time the rich were the kings and religious people who lives off the back of the tax payers(farmers who were the real workers) in capitalism, jesus's teachings about rich people going to hell is absurd, after all you need to work to get money here.

biologicly, how can you choose your correct mate(wife/husband) if you are afraid of looking him/her in the face fearing sin, if you have no intentions of meeting many people and dating alot, looking up, looking down, etc...
