    Why religious organizations are forced to use “scientific” language to prove their po

    Since ancient people tried to explain the nature the best way they could, they used their then scientific knowledge. When they didn't have enough of scientific knowledge, they used their imagination to answer their questions about the nature. (That's why we have so many different religions...

    Why religious organizations are forced to use “scientific” language to prove their po

    My mistake! :) Thanks for the offer! :) I read about few religions and all of them, that I read have one thing in common - they look for an answer outside of science and physical world. What's the point of reading about all of the religions when the difference is in not what people worship...

    Why religious organizations are forced to use “scientific” language to prove their po

    I don't worship anything. I don't believe in any "higher power" above me. I'm just a part of the psysical world as everything and everybody else. Don't tell me please what to imply or not. :) My free will and freedom is very important to me too. If free will was important to a person...

    Why religious organizations are forced to use “scientific” language to prove their po

    :) There are no religions to embrace science. For all religions science is a mortal enemy because science studies and explains nature using non-religious approach. There is no place for religion in science. I don’t mean to offend people by calling them “slaves”. Unfortunately, religious...

    Why religious organizations are forced to use “scientific” language to prove their po

    Holy books were written a few thousands years ago with terminology from then modern science. In our days modern religious “scientists” use modern scientific terminology to confuse modern people because they won’t believe the old scientific terminology. So, any time you see modern scientific...

    Why religious organizations are forced to use “scientific” language to prove their po

    I think they do that because of the few things that they consider dangerous for religion: 1. Rapid advance of science. More and more facts from science contradict religious points of view. 2. People become more educated. Simple religious slogans are not convincing enough for them anymore. 3...

    Hi everybody!

    Science is proved by experiments and tests. And also, Communists didn't lie about religion. They had scientific point of view on it. By the way, every thinking person in USSR knew that Communists lied about many things. It doesn't mean that they lied about everything. If you follow the...

    Against Atheism

    So much effort! If theists would really want to find the truth, they would read more of science. I mean real science, not religious research. The principal problem with religions is that religions require to believe first and then think but only within the limits of particular religion...

    Atheists, how did life start to you?

    For some unexplainable reason, my atheistic point of view is the same as the scientific point of view. :)

    End of atheism?

    I'm not sure about your statistics. I've seen statistics that people become less and less religious. It's inevitable. People become more educated tspecially with development of the Internet. More and more people see that science makes more sense, so they stop believing in fantasies. It's...

    Why people believe in supernatural?

    Science is looking for an answer, religion has the same answer for everything. Science makes mistakes - it's normal when you honestly trying to find out the truth. Religion is always "right". Science does evolve. Religion is forced to "evolve" because it was created according to the science of...

    Hi everybody!

    I do understand that there are good and bad people, good and bad professionals. I think that the difference between priests and policemen is that even a "good" priest is a bad thing because he/she represents organized religion which promotes fantasy over reality, destroys people's self-esteem...

    Hi everybody!

    Let me introduce myself. I was born in former USSR in 60-s. Moved to Canada 12 years ago. By the way, please forgive me if my English will be not perfect. I was raised to respect feelings of religious people but after I learned about unpunished rapes of children by priests, I lost my respect to...

    Why people believe in supernatural?

    I'm just saying that religious person needs more education, to become more honest to him/herself and more brave to handle the truth of reality. I know, it's very scary and difficult. I was not religious but it took me years to become an atheist.

    Why people believe in supernatural?

    When person has a burning question without answer, he/she becomes distracted by it and can’t focus on everyday tasks. You can find more about it in neurophysiology. If person is provided with a proof that contradicts person’s belief, person will have to be honest to follow the scientific logic...
