    Will the Religions Ever be Completely Driven out by the Sciences?

    Science will only rid the world of religion if people choose rationality and probability over faith and magic. If religion beats science then in 100 yr we will see the destruction of the world through self fulfilling prophecy. The more we apply the scientific method to what is best for society...

    Sinning?

    History of Christmas - Christmas - HISTORY.com I believe this will show you how the Christmas holiday never had any origin in Christianity. And if this is not good enough proof for my assumption, then please tell me what evidence you require to believe my assumption.

    Sinning?

    Christmas is paganism the bible says nothing about decorating trees or celebrating the birth of Christ on December 25. This was originally a ritual to celebrate the Roman god mithra. All Christians did was change the name. So every year for an entire month Christians celebrate a pagan holiday.

    theists attack atheism because they are insecure

    Theists argue that they want to save atheists. As an atheist this infuriates me. I do not need saved. This is the delusion that theists have tricked themselves into believing and try to trick everyone else into believing. They create an imaginary soul that supposedly continues to live after the...

    A World without Rules.

    Morality is the ability to decide who you are as a person and protect those who you feel have more in common with you than not. If everyone in the world identified themselves as human beings and recognized everyone else as equal human beings no matter location or beliefs you would have a human...

    Is intolerance of beliefs, views, opinions that do not affect you a symptom of emotional immaturity?

    Yes religious faith is emotional immaturity. What would you call someone who still believed in Santa Claus or the tooth fairy as an adult and refused any and all evidence to the contrary.

    Is intolerance of beliefs, views, opinions that do not affect you a symptom of emotional immaturity?

    I would like to argue that the biggest sign of emotional immaturity is the ability to have absolute beliefs, or believing 100% something is true and no evidence however strong it is could ever change your belief. The second you accept any absolute you become arrogant, and combative against...

    Is intolerance of beliefs, views, opinions that do not affect you a symptom of emotional immaturity?

    We as a society have the moral obligation to be intolerant of all beliefs and faiths that cuts a person off from learning new information. The danger to the rest of the public does not come from one person believing unicorns are real. It is when that one person seeks to make everyone else...

    Attributing Events to your Deities

    The simplest answer is that people are naturally lazy. It is much easier and requires much less effort to say that something you don't understand is magic and beyond understanding, than to actually investigate and and discover the process behind what happened. Especially if believing that magic...

    holy spirit

    Holy spirit spreads God's goodness? I would like to remind people who read the bible that the only good part of the god trinity was Jesus. God was vengeful, full of wrath and terrorized those who believed in him most. Even Jesus who was supposedly sent to die for humanity had to beg god while he...

    The Left And Obama Is/Was Always About Giving Jobs To Foreigners And Illegals And Not US Citizens

    40% of Wal-Mart employees are on food stamps. And 25% of all food stamp money is spent at Wal-Mart. So taxpayers have to subsidize these workers because Wal-Mart won't pay a decent wage. Then these subsidies are spent and used to keep this business open. Yay capitalism.

    The Left And Obama Is/Was Always About Giving Jobs To Foreigners And Illegals And Not US Citizens

    The 1% will only ever do what is profitable. They don't care about the other 99%. In fact in a lot of cases the 99% are worth more dead than alive. Wal-Mart Is #1 employer of elderly and legally takes out life insurance policies on low level workers like cashiers and door greeters. These life...

    holy spirit

    And the holy spirit makes absolutely no sense. It's an energy that lives in all of creation and yet is conveniently the one thing we can't see and identify with any known technology

    holy spirit

    If there was a god it would not have genitals because it does not reproduce or dispose of waste like humans. What would be the purpose for god to be male or female if he or she didn't have an equal counterpart. The simpler explanation is that God was created in man's image.

    Good evening!

    I'm an atheist and I think you should talk to "god" or anything you want. We humans can talk to anything. And talking and saying out loud what you want from life, what you want to fix in your life is very therapeutic. I take drives in the country talking to a momento of a lost friend when I'm...

    Why are some people... geniuses?

    Genius is just a word we give people who are able to process a great amount of information in a short amount of time. Also the human brain is nothing more than a biological computer. So the computer that some people are born with is faster than others. People can also train the brain or program...

    The Left And Obama Is/Was Always About Giving Jobs To Foreigners And Illegals And Not US Citizens

    If you truly want jobs back in America then the burden is on the American consumer. The best way to start doing this is STOP SHOPPING AT WAL-MART. Wal-Mart forces manufacturing oversees for everyday low prices. If you want American jobs then stop buying products made in other countries by slave...

    Did Jesus exist?

    Jesus Christ was Roman political propaganda used to control Jews that would choose to believe and persecute those who wouldn't. If we look at the evidence at the time we see that j.c. was a far more useful tool than any other. At the time other messiah were more warrior and robin hood like. So...

    Just Accidental?

    Evolution is the logical culmination of millions of adaptations. We know evolution to be true by hypothesizing what adaptations occurred during the life of a species and imagining what species would have looked like what features they would've had through the course of history. Then going out...
