“Mrs Rob here,
I know what you mean, some people have and do use religion for other then it was intended, but that is the problem with the user not the religion. Just as some will use political status for their own power and some use money for bad.
It is a shame these people put others off. Anyway happy new year to you .”

“Hi Mrs Rob, sorry for putting an extra "live" in my earlier post. A happy new year to you. You may well be correct in your comment about christians, but I prefer to believe that religion of all types causes more problems than it solves.”
