3 Flavours of Bollocks under 1 Roof!

Berlin is building a combined Church/Mosque/Synagogue under one roof. Wow. Expect to see a similar level of fistfights as we witness every xmas at the church of the nativity in Bethlehem, where dozens of christian demonifications vie for space. Cue complaints from Sikhs, Hindus, Jains, B'a'h'a'i's, Rasta, Pastas, New World Mastas, etc... :tea:

Oh hell to the yes! Put up hordes of webcams and we can watch the fun live. Like one of those fake reality shows for real.

Are they building a combat field into the installation? A little hand to hand. Swords and nets and all that Romanesque trial by combat stuff?

What a great way to settle their religious differences...each religion chooses a champion and the losers have to convert to the winner's religion...all of them.

I would set up a knife, club and chainsaw shop right next to it. Assuming guns are illegal in Germany, that is.

Actually, there have been many examples of the Abrahamic religions making common cause recently - remember the whole UN thing, trying to get blasphemy outlawed? I think they see a common enemy in secularism, and are prepared to go a fair way to present a common face towards the atheistical foe...

Just like Hitler and Stalin in the early 40s... Expect a religious Operation Barbarossa any time soon! :tea:

That's not how Kilkenny cats do it. When they fight, nobody leaves.
They kill each other, eat each other, and all that's left is the tips of the tails, and some claws.

Even better! A blood-stained cross, a skull-cap and a tattered koran were all that remained...

Yup. We won't see fights between the three main groups, but there could be some fun deciding who represents them. Catholics v. Orthodox v. a zillion others; Sunni v. Shi'ite. Let battle commence!

They're attempting to go from:

"My imaginary friend is the only real imaginary friend, and your's is an evil delusion, and I am going to disembowel you"

to:

"My imaginary friend is really the same as your imaginary friend, although obviously I have a much better picture of him than you, but I forgive you because I'm superior"
