Some very important questions that every catholic should be asking themselves when they go to get their wafer on Sunday. Is it the priest giving you your wafer that has just recently arrived a pedophile? was it the one that has just recently left? or is it both?. |

I've been informed that I will never see God or Angels until I am prepared to open up my mind to the spiritual world.
I gather that this means I have to switch off my rational thought processes.
Unplug my reasoning chip.
Turn my gullibility levels to maximum, and from thereon in be prepared to accept whatever enters my mind as THE TRUTH.
Yeah. Right. |

The answer religion provides however, will not correctly answer any scientific question. |

What did that child ever do to you? Oh sorry we are to pay for the sins of our forefathers - like wtf?

There is general agreement among scientists that a propensity to engage in religious behavior evolved early in human history. However there is disagreement on the exact mechanisms that drove the evolution of the religious mind.There are two schools of thought. One is that religion itself evolved due to natural selection and is an adaptation, in which case religion conferred some sort of evolutionary advantage. Alternatively, religious beliefs and behaviors may have emerged as byproducts of other adaptive traits without initially being selected for because of their own benefits.Religious behavior often involves significant costs including economic costs, celabacy, dangerous rituals, or by spending time that could otherwise be used.This would suggest that natural selection should act against religious behavior unless it or something else causing religious behavior have significant advantages.

Get rid of "I believe" from your vocabulary. Replace by "I know", "I think", "I guess" and "I don't know". This is your first baby step for understanding objective reality. |

Society needs to start teaching evolution to our children as early as possible just like religion has done with their dogma. The first five years of a child's life is when a belief system develops. Evolution education should start at the beginning of school years through the last year of high school. It should be a mandatory subject.

All one must do is read about dna, how genetically close we are to the great apes, and look at the human fossil record. It is obvious that we were not created, we are products of evolution. |

In the u.s., the state of utah, which is a mormon theocray, spent over eight million dollars to stop a proposition in the state of california that would have legalized gay marrage. Where does the mormon church get off spending money to stop a proposition in another state? The LDS church, which is the politcaly correct name for mormons, needs to stop dumping their dogma where it dosent belong. Keep it in utah where the sheep are stupid enough to follow it. |

The biggest deterrent in the progressive development of human beings is religion. I have no doubt that we would already have a cure for cancer and have a settlement on Mars had science prevailed over antiquated beliefs. |

If fewer children are indoctrinated into a religion and allowed to think and choose their own path, there would be far less religious people. This is why theists start brainwashing their children at the earliest possible age. |

A wise man once said, "It is better to be educated than to be indoctrinated!" |
|
Enoch Author (admin) |
That’s the problem with indoctrination; the whole point of ....[religious] .... education is to stop someone from thinking and instead kick their emotions into gear. Make them hate everything else so they’ll cling to what you give them. It’s hard to think for yourself when fear and anger are driving the shuttle. • Delilah S. Dawson |

Humanism is the purest expression of your soul as a human. It has no God to be concerned with, except for the living Gods, that is the humans. It has no doctrine to abide by, except for the natural doctrine of love and benevolence. That's the religion we need my friend. • Abhijit Naskar |

Certain christians simply do not grasp the fact that, under the U.S. Constitution, rights are not matters of majority rule. Rights exist to protect the individual from the tyranny of the majority. |

While it's true atheists have fewer holidays to celebrate than theists, it's also true atheists have no holy wars they're responsible for, and that's a trade-off I'm willing to make. |
