    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    Hence the reason any ideology which encourages unchecked breeding of humans is worthy of discouragement. • “All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself.” – Club of...

    Slavery in the Bible: more than meets the eye?

Slashing them little kids against wall, and rip pregnant women apart, Slashing them little kids against wall, and rip pregnant women apart, Slashing them little kids against wall, and rip pregnant women apart, Slashing them little...

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    I think that once one has a knowledge of the genetic predisposition of humans to struggle for survival one will realise upon honest reflection that the same moral outcomes would occur between secular peoples as would occur between Christians in a bad situation -that is if supply of humans...

    Religious belief and morality

    Strip away the religions, would we all descend into unruly behaviour? The atheists certainly wouldn't. It seems that you are still in denial about what atheists actually get up to when they have the power. I have not noticed a response to Augustus' post enlightening you on the atheistic...

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    Okey Dokey... but... to my post earlier where i wrote .......It seems that without religion war is just as prevalent so maybe religion was not the cause of those other wars. You answered .................................................................. Then the reverse is necessarily also...

    Religious belief and morality

    Fair enough. I did over state what you had said in the attempt at being concise. You did acknowledge that there are indeed some thoughts that should not be embraced. I assumed that as a given, as you had already clarified that, and i was referring to the crazy idea of 60+ genders that you seemed...

    Religious belief and morality

    Somehow forgotten about the laws we seem to enact - which most likely come from attempts to curb our less friendly behaviour towards others? Laws that try to socially engineer mankind into some homogeneous lump that can be identified as moral humanity are doomed to failure and an ocean of...

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    Ok.... for the sake of argument postulate a mental exercise and imagine a severe economic reverse of fortune for the west. Things are pretty easy to mitigate when you print trillions of dollars worth of bad money and dare the system to call you on it.... but nothing is free and a consolidation...

    Religious belief and morality

    Thinking is good. There is much you need to think about. While you're at it how about thinking about not using stupid examples that are obviously ridiculous and frankly insulting because they have no basis in anything i have written. If you truly think from the way i have expressed myself that i...

    Religious belief and morality

    The assertion that 'no one is teaching morality' is ridiculous. I see absolutely NO attempt to teach about the immorality of War in the schools unless it is looking back to blame some imagined oppressive past that must be overturned.Contemporary warfare is not up for criticism in the patriotic...

    Religious belief and morality

    You are forgetting that we are all born with something between our ears, too. It's called a "brain." And it is far and away the most important "sex organ" that we have. It is my understanding that there is work in the medical profession that there are indeed some brain differences between males...

    Are Your Kids Having Sex?

    Her message to them isn’t just about sex while they’re teenagers but for their whole life. It’s also important to know the purpose of sex is having children even if (especially if) that isn’t your current intention. Again, you were reading a whole lot in to a single choice of word and not...

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    Hi I don't think the caliphate compares even a little to the systemic violence unleashed by the collective atheist philosophy in full power. Mao, Stalin, Polpot set up systemic slaughter of millions upon millions of their own people in the drive for their utopia.

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    Well human hatred is a tough nut to crack it seems. different branches of the same faith besides between different religions - Protestants and Catholics, Hindus and Muslims, Muslims and Christians, I know of very few expressions of religious violence that were specifically about religion...

    I think i will just refer you to Augustus post number #46 he did an excellent job laying it out.

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    You have never heard of Alexander Solzhenitsyn and you have the hide to claim you know anything about the soviet system. Incredible. He is no supposed authority he IS the authority on soviet brutality and if you do not know the gulag archipelago then you know very very little indeed. You...

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    Yeah all those wars had NO POLITICAL motives. It seems that without religion war is just as prevalent so maybe religion was not the cause of those other wars. Atheist governments actually seem to be a little more bloodthirsty than the religious ones if you do the numbers. I thought the argument...

    Objective Morals. Are they any better?

    Solzhenitsyn was an eyewitness to the worst that humanity has ever done. His insights into what it takes to turn men into the sort of people who can do what was done in the Soviet Union as probably the most relevant source on the malevolence and depravity of mankind that was produced during the...

    Religious belief and morality

    If our morality was not tied to religious belief, apart from probably enabling us to work out a consensus view ourselves, it would also enable us to cope with the changes we have seen and are going to see in the future. Probably.... really? How the hell is that supposed to happen. Human...
