I could be wrong, but Taoism hasn't really killed many people that I know of, nor have there been to many vicious attacks against Taoists and yet they appear on there too. It seems there is more to it than just being nice to each other. Just being nice to one another is called "accepting the individual and not necessarily their views" which is something most Christians do today. However, the idea of coexistence as expressed by those who put the idea forth really has to do with everyone putting aside their religion and accepting a one world religion.
When I say, "settle their differences" I am talking about physically no longer doing harm to one another.
Perhaps this new group is addressing that in a PC way? I hope so, for historically, no attempt by any relgion to create a one-world religion has had a positive outcome.

I would consider that a possability if it weren't for the fact that a good percentage of the bumperstickers sold by them (them being the company with the copyright to the sticker: peacemonger.org) are pro-Obama which at the current moment translates to anti-Israel which translates to anti-Jew.
Yes it may sound like a cute and fuzzy catch phrase but just take a glance at the websites they promote on their sticker and you will see the real intent. No, they are not telling Muslims to coexist. Quite the opposite...
Coexistence??? Na, I don't think so. Destruction of all things Judeo-Chrsitian sounds more like it.
- Their answer at internationalanswer.org is to support the muslims.
- Moveon.org .... do I have to say anything about this one
- truthout.org... Hmmmm.... read these headlines t r u t h o u t | Search and you will find they are not very coexistent sounding either.
You didn't know Goldcatt was voted Ms. USMB?
And I missed it? I need to pay closer attention.
Where's my scholarship?
I guess TL has a problem with that
I don't have a problem with it. The Muslims do.
I'd say looking at the history there's plenty of blood to go around in that feud. What's wrong with promoting putting an end to it, and how does that affect anybody's personal beliefs?

While you're historically correct, the reality is that most people do 'co-exist' now in civilized countries.
The problem is the 1% who refuse to.
Ignoring that 1% is unrealistic.

Not only unrealistic, but all too often very unwise. If there is only one poisonous snake in the midst of a barrel of snakes, some caution is warranted in dealing with those snakes.
Since at least three of the religions depicted believe in "absolutes," in order to "☪☮e✡is✞" one would to "believe" that there are no absolutes and in doing so, would be changing their religion to the religion of "☪☮e✡is✞ance"
Thoughts?

I think all of us wish we could sing kumbaya and play nice together. but as you point out there are some poisonous snakes.
The problem is striking a compromise between believing everyone can behave together and over-reaction.
I find it very interesting that sticker is always on the back of the cars owned by the most intolerant, creedist anti-religion people.Since at least three of the religions depicted believe in "absolutes," in order to "☪☮e✡is✞" one would to "believe" that there are no absolutes and in doing so, would be changing their religion to the religion of "☪☮e✡is✞ance"

I don't have to believe that my religious beliefs are wrong in order to coexist with people who have other beliefs. All I have to do is respect their right to disagree with me.
I am willing to co exist with anyone who will respect me as well,
However, the nature and history of Islam recalls the story of the frog and the scorpion. Such is the nature of islam, as is the nature of the scorpion.

First you must answer a question...
Recent polls have shown that 1/5 of Americans can't locate the US on a World Map.. Why do you think this is?
Am I the only one has no clue what the original posts says?

The part that I bold-ed is exactly my point. The problem is that most Christians and Jews already do this. If coexistence is all religions living side by side and not killing each other, great! which is what is currently taking place with all religions but Islam. Add in the fact that those proposing this "coexistence" are the most bigoted anti-Jewish, anti-Christian, pro-Muslim fanatics and you find that it has nothing to do with the term itself but rather the destruction of certain religious points of view.
I do respect their right to disagree with me, but when it comes down to them telling me to coexist while the are saying the Jews don't have a right to exist, it goes beyond just a simple phrase.

Light, you just took one idea and turned it into Pro-Israeli propaganda.
Well, I am going to take a sarcastic tone while taking up the Palestianian cause for a moment here.
If the Jews and the Christians can "coexist" and practice "coexistance" so damn well, then carve some land out of a Christian country and give it to the Jews! That is right--and oh, make it so that JEWS are shooting the CHRISTIANS for the land the CHRISTIANS are currently living on in that region!
