    Theists aren't Theists To Explain Nature

    Ok I'm to break up a few things to address specific parts. No it's not. What a ridiculous notion. The Laws of Thermodynamics or the correct answer to "Where did I leave my keys?" does not boil down to..well see the facts are what you FEEL. Which is irrelevant to whether it's actually factual...

    Theists aren't Theists To Explain Nature

    I think it does in that the goalposts merely shift. While the language is more sophisticated and certain aspects of the natural world that were given supernatural explanation have fallen to the way side due to science. It still remains that religions attempts to interject it's supernaturalism...

    Theists aren't Theists To Explain Nature

    A potential issue of tact and or eloquence. This however does not in any way shape or form remove the ultimate issue. Having a FEELING that your mental construct is the "best explanation." does not, by itself, stand as evidence that it is in FACT the correct explanation. if a person, religious...

    Theists aren't Theists To Explain Nature

    ANYTHING can be toted out as something that "explains a lot of things." This in no way means that the explanation given is the CORRECT one. Religion is just imho the most prominent of those cases.

    "Atheists, agnostics most knowledgeable about religion, survey says."

    I find it odd that people even ask this question. I tend to find it seems to involve a least a basic ignorance of all the subjects that interact with and are part and parcel of "religion." Any discussion of religion is not simply the discussion of any theology. It is a discussion on modern...

The very notion that all human beings in the world were "evil!!!!!" except for one family is so saturday morning cartoon evil white hat/black hat loony toons it's an insult to any serious and complex discussion...

    "Atheists, agnostics most knowledgeable about religion, survey says."

    Creationists, please provide evidence

    For me the worry is children. I have a daughter and the idea that she could be indoctrinated in Creationist thinking because of a lapse in vigilance by educators or by the manipulations of those idiots at the Texas Board of Education worries me quite a bit.

    Abortion

    I have no problem with abortion being legal. I'd also have more sympathy for the anti abortionists if they weren't so often misguided and they take two steps back for every one they try to take forward.

    I usually remember the wording I used since you had to shout it more than a few times while in basic training.

    Christians in America

    And lets not forget Christian persecution of Christians. The saying "Kill them all let God sort em out." has it's origins in the history of Christian on Christian violence after all.
