Damn, what the hell do any of those have to do with anything? :dozey:

in the 80's the pope in secret started a research program

You made me spit water all over my screen, you bastard. Cue movie trailer voice: IN THE 1980s, THE POPE COMMISSIONED A SECRET RESEARCH PROJECT...

Religion itself doesn't boost terrorism. All religions are religions of love and peace. Its later rulers who want to propagate their belief and try to force it upon others violently that turn religion into something evil. Its the man-made institution that promotes terror.

That's actually not true. The Q'ran directly supports violence against non-Islams.

But most religions do NOT support or even remotely condone violence.

Also, ID is not creationism. I'll explain more later, but I gotta go now

 

[Solaris]

Lol.

Angry Lawyer you can have your beliefs I dont mind.

I have no problem with beliving in god, my problems with organsied religion. Not becuase its bad, buts it abused to pass an agenda. Be it God is on our side, or God wanted me to win. Or he is blasphemas KILL HIM!.

Cathlocism is a prime example imo, only until it lost its real power, did it stop burning people.

Thats why I respect Siekism, it has no intermediatry so isnt open to abuse. But I dont know much about it unfourghtunatly.

However all I was arguing was that Religion is wrong (Not morally), and can have no ground when Science wants it.

Science>Religion and as long as that law is upheld I don't care what you belive. I am often very curious why people do have faith, especially scientists. I have been on and off about 15 times in my life. And for now im sticking to absolute Atheism.

the bible is full of "..and god smote" .."and god said smite thine enemies mightily" ..."and the sons of jeremiah smote the sons of Ezekiel" ...and so on (I'm paraphrasing)

there's even passages that direct me to stone my wife to death for disobedience should she decide to get cheeky ...I showed my wife that passage and she slapped me in the side of the head :E

Environmentalism and animal rights are also abused, its not only religion that gets twisted. Are animal rights and environmentalism inherently bad, though?

If you hear that in one of the towns, there are men who are telling people to go and worship other gods, it is your duty to look into the matter and examine it. If it is proved and confirmed, you must put the inhabitants of that town to the sword. You must lay the town under the curse of destruction, the town and everything in it.

Jesus (who, lest we forget, is ****ING METAL) would not approve.

Jesus (who, lest we forget, is ****ING METAL) would not approve.

That quote is from the Old Testament, Jesus' METALNESS didn't come into being until the New Testament, which included such legendary lyrics as "Love thy neighbour", "Turn the other cheek", and "CRAAAAWLINNG INNN MY SKIIIN!"

[Sulkdodds]

Yeah, I know. I was just making the point - the old testament, unlike the New, really really sucked.

Just like Rock Music sucked before Bon Jovi. Everything needs a catalyst.

[Llama]

What do you have with Bon Jovi? A personal fetish?
I cant see why anyone beleives ID theory...maybe im just stupid. There is no proof of it, it is, as has been said before, a religous beleif. As such it has no place in scientific society

 

[Solaris]

Idd.
Science>Religion.....

Cummon someone sig it.

 

[Angry Lawyer]

What do you have with Bon Jovi? A personal fetish?

More like a lot of the songs gave me hope through their meanings, when I would otherwise have done something really, really stupid to myself. Bon Jovi are my personal heroes.

[Jandor]

What do you think to the new album?

 

[KoreBolteR]

utterly rubbish...






















religion that is

 

[Angry Lawyer]

What do you think to the new album?

Damn well EXTREME!

"I Am" is fast becoming my favourite song.

if not one person on this earth can prove that god exists... isnt that a sign? im not saying people should stop believeing in him, but what if hes a fake? you people have worshipped a fictional character.

gimme a video link with god talking to the pope and ill believe you.

Every single early civilization believed in a god. Isn't that a sign?



Also, ID is NOT creationism. ID is saying that a 'god' let all of the parts of life on Earth, and nudged them together and let them do the rest of the work.
Creationism is the belief that God created the world in six day.

Not really...

Literal creationists believe the whole six-day thing. ID is the more modern version.

 

[Maxi]

Still ID and creationism is wrong. If either of them are ever prove ever in the future ever ever ever, then pedobear is god.

 

[Solaris]

All hail.

 

[Sulkdodds]

But pedobear is god... ah shit.
