    Define Universe

    I uphold the right of people to hold what ever belief they wish, that is a mandatory human freedom. But would you trust a pilot that prayed to keep an aircraft airborne.

    The contributions of the sciences to Religion

    Science can be overwhelming for some, so they attend religious group therapy sessions, eg church or friday prayers, so others can tell them how to think. Cheers

    Why science unable to control Death ?

    Death is deliberately inbuilt and necessary for evolution. We are a bunch of cells, some which must die, if cells didn't die we would be born with webbed feet and hands as the cells in that region are programmed to die during the embryonic stage, so we can have independent fingers and toes...

    Define Universe

    Physics says matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed, they can only be interchanged ie E=mc^2. G_d seems to once again contradict the basic rules of physics. Also what is a vacuum ie nothing? If a space is filled with matter it is not empty, if we remove the gasses we refer to it...

    Prophet Jesus PBUH commanded people to be Muslim

    There is an old adage if your terrible in real life business become a teacher. As a teacher I find it true as I can retreat behind the system.

    What is the oldest religion?

    They all pail into oblivion compared to the Australian Aboriginal beliefs that have led to to a continuous civilization of over 40,000 years exceeding the combined total of all other known religions combined, perhaps we should spend more time discovering the Rainbow Serpent. Cheers

    What is the most common mistake that atheists make?

    If so what is the difference between Father Xmas, Angels, God and the Easter Bunny? Surely they are all no more than figments of ones imagination. Just that some of us grow up earlier than others. Cheers

    Define Universe

    When I was brought up the Universe contained "ÄLL" since the big bang. I am now a science teacher and when approached by those of a religious bent I explain it this way. Like a concentric pool of Venn Diagrams I explain here is the Universe and here is that we do know and here is that we don't...

    What is your belief in regards to God?

    Atheist Philosopher I have never met him/her or seen any evidence such a creature exists. Current scientific evidence has given me a satisfactory explanation of How and Why I exist and what happens when I die If you substituted the word "Universe" for the word "God" then you move closer to my...

    Is there such a thing as Sin?

    As a totally Areligious Aussie the concept of sin really does not exist. We do however have Laws, unfortunately there are those odd few that exhibit extreme opportunistic behavior and we call them Criminals and their heaven is called Prison which happily accommodates those of all religions. Cheers

    Why can't people just leave the Jews alone?

    "illegal" settlements on the West bank and Gaza are a primary thorn aggravating the festering sore that fuels conflict in the middle east, they should be bull dozed and residents returned to Israel proper. Ties to Palestinian territory are historic but this does NOT entitle Israel to legal...

    Why can't people just leave the Jews alone?

    Because the Jewish Taliban keeps stealing other peoples land.

    "Daesh" ... the name that ISIS hates. So, let's use it!!

    Tribal groups of the middle east have been killing each other for millennia, it is their tradition. After all its only 100 years since they were basically camel jockeys. They breed like rabbits because so many are expected to die young, multiple wives because of the depleted number of males etc...

    To the religious (life after death)

    It amazes me how many fail to be aware we exist as sentient beings within our own current privileged Heaven and Hell and actually continue to think there is something after we turn to cold hard dirt, distributed amoungsts various bacteria and fungi ; asleep for 13.8 billion years , awake for a...

    Religious Affiliation in USA Continues to Decline. WHY?

    Simple Education beats deferment of facts to higher fictitious character.

    Cannabis and violence, mass killings

    Cause or effect? I think this article while intentions are good, lacks credibility, where are the facts. It seems to me other factors such as social isolation, social prejudices, unemployment, radicalizing blogs, violent video games and religious contradictions are of far greater significance...

    Congratulations to Germany!

    I think it is fantastic and applaud Germany for opening its doors to this humanitarian disaster, however I am concerned about the ability to accommodate and assimilate such a large shift in cultural differences. If this immigration program exceeds a certain point then down the track it is highly...

    who created "cancer"?

    Perhaps a better question would be "What causes cancer".
