    Neat Video Explaining the Evidence of Our Relationship To the Other Great Apes

    "Nothing to do with the quran". So why is religion that follows the quran unable to suppress these evils which are particular to muslim societies? I don't buy your cop-out. As far as I have been able to observe, your B items are a good summary of the way things actually are. Admirably clearly...

    Neat Video Explaining the Evidence of Our Relationship To the Other Great Apes

    Those measures sound good to me. Not to be found among muslims, by the way. High taxes are not necessarily that bad if they support good services. I gather that those countries have experienced an upsurge in sexual abuse after permitting immigration by muslims.

    New Evidence Found To Show Humans Came From Fish

    Easy. Many of the purported events would have left traces. Those traces are absent. Record-keeping societies active at the purported times of events left no word of those events. Several continued through a claimed global flood without disruption. The bible is clearly a collection of folk tales...

    Neat Video Explaining the Evidence of Our Relationship To the Other Great Apes

    How about Sweden? I have personally visited Denmark and was impressed. You might like to check out that country too.

    Neat Video Explaining the Evidence of Our Relationship To the Other Great Apes

    Given that the problems of muslim societies are common across differing cultures, the koran must have something to do with them. Extremist groups such as ISIS and Boko Haram are explicitly islamic. The Nordic countries are generally regarded as having especially well-functioning cultures and as...

    Neat Video Explaining the Evidence of Our Relationship To the Other Great Apes

    Yet, the best that can be said for so-called religious morality is that it is ineffective. Consider islam: muslims make a lot of noise about morality, yet muslim societies are cesspits of corruption, bigotry, oppression, torture, and general backwardness. Not impressive. On the other hand, the...

    The Issue with Modern Day Science

    That makes no sense to me. Are you sure that you are not being taken in by clever con men spouting balderdash to keep themselves out of the rice paddies?

    I Found An Intelligent Atheist, But He's Still Wrong

    The scoundrels that promote so-called creation science, Answers in Genesis and ICR, require their members to subscribe to a "statement of faith" that requires them to lie through their teeth. The Wedge Document shows that the aim of so-called creation science is to establish theocracy. There...

    Very Strong Evidence Against the Existence of the Supernatural

    All these phenomena tell us is that the universe has properties; big deal. Your argument is just an appeal to ignorance, please try again. Learning some science would help.

    I Found An Intelligent Atheist, But He's Still Wrong

    I note that you are indifferent about whether the religious notions you approve are actually true or not, an attitude I have often seen used by theists to deflect criticism. I find it curious that people do not feel that tactic embarrassing. Sure theism is a scam. I suppose that the first...

    I Found An Intelligent Atheist, But He's Still Wrong

    If no knowledge is available, an honest person would not choose either until the necessary knowledge is found. That said, it is very clear, at least to me, that religion is an obvious con game, and can be rejected for that reason.

    Is The Best Evidence For God Father Time?

    You have my deepest sympathy for your incapacity.

    What do you make of God/s

    Easy. Consciousness is a process that happens in brains. No oogity-boogity needed. You need to resist the religious error of supposing that everything is a substance or a person. Let's get free of these ancient mistakes of thinking.

    Is Pain And Suffering The Only Way To Convince Atheists That There Is A God

    "True for you"? What nonsense. If a proposition is true, it is true for everyone. If you mean merely that you think it is true, fair enough. I don't think it is a waste of your time to rescue you from a vicious scam.

    Superstitions have got nothing to do with religion or science.

    Superstition is attempts to circumvent the natural order of things; eg tossing spilled salt over one's shoulder to avert bad luck. In religion, one uses abasement acts to achieve the same. Two peas from the same pod, both equally futile.

    Evidence for an ancient earth

    Since we lack information about the earliest times, there is no way to assess your probabilities definitively.However, since "godditit" has never been found to be a useful answer to a question of fact, we have some justification for rejecting it here. You do not get to stick gods in everywhere...

    Is Pain And Suffering The Only Way To Convince Atheists That There Is A God

    Yet the truth is still true and the fiction is still imaginary. Strangeness is irrelevant. Why pick the scribblings of ignorant savages of millennia ago over careful modern research? Especially when those scribblings are clearly in error. For example, Noah's flood cannot have happened: it...

    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    No-one chooses beliefs. They are (or are not) convinced by evidence, argument or indoctrination. Atheists have simply not been convinced that there are gods. The theists have merely failed to make their case. I think that claiming to have chosen a belief is merely announcing a political...

    Is Pain And Suffering The Only Way To Convince Atheists That There Is A God

    A quick note: atheists do not care what the bible says. Quoting the bible to atheists is hilariously inane. Your remarks about pain and suffering make no sense. Those happen constantly from altogether natural causes. If the existence of god cannot be verified, believing in him/her/it/them is...
