get rid of religion if we want evolve

[Butterbean]

No surprises that the less intelligent grow up to become socially conservative, and look towards childish superstitions for comfort.    

won day we hoefully be as edumacated as you....derp!

A majority of ills suffered by mankind has at its root (often directly) religion. 

If you are referring to Biblical Christianity as a religion in the above can you please elaborate w/some examples?

I have more reasonable and solid proof that he doesn't exist then you do that he does.

And if you have to ask what proof it is, then you're clearly someone who will never emerge from the brainwashing.

For those of us functioning with a two-watt bulb for a brain could you possibly provide some of your proof that God doesn't exist?  It would be "enlightening" (bada-cha!).

[Fortress]

Let's put it this way, if a god does exist, if I meet him/her/it, I will be sure to spit in its face. Pure piece of shit "creator".

And for what it's worth, I was raised in a religious context. Gave it my all. But my intelligence and strength cured me of the foolishness.

Each passing year since becoming UNborn I feel ever more free and peaceful ... and humble in my existence. I also treat people better and feel more empathy because of our shared pain and ultimate demise.

It isn't negative this feeling, but rather enlightening and in awe of our universe and its endless mystery.

Fortress do you mind sharing what your religion/denomination was?

I'm sorry to say this, but if you're at peace right now I'd hate to cross you on a bad day.

Good ole Dawkins and his memes.

Dawkin memes > Jesus memes.

So you want me to provide proof that something we can't see, hear, touch, smell or with which we can communicate in any real way, does not exist? ... All we have as "proof" from your side is a many-times-over re-written batch of texts authored thousands of years ago by ... who knows? ... ? When folks of the day didn't know shit about anything?

Please just stop.

You'd be fortunate to meet and know me. I am a friendly guy.

If we ever want to "upgrade" our society to type 1 we better get rid of feudal religion all together Muslims radical Christian or any religion for that matter have no interest in science religion is the last thing that keeps us from evolving.

Religion is mind poisoning/brain washing man-made garbage.

[Butterbean]

Roman Catholic

I thought that may be it.

Do you feel you were ever a believer in Christ as Savior or did your church focus mainly on tradition and ritual?

You mentioned you had proof that God doesn't exist and I was hoping in my dullard state of brainwashed, foolishness you would share a bit of it....that's all.

I have a relative who was a priest, and he, too, bailed on "god".

Absolutely

history says otherwise

[Man of Steel]

You'd be fortunate to meet and know me. I am a friendly guy.

In all honesty I'm sure you are.  I try and never attack on message boards anymore because I know the reality of real life encounters....none of the same heats exists in real life encounters (with the exception of extreme cases of which I wouldn't find myself engaged in).

[Fortress]

Jeeez, are you serious?! Read what I wrote AGAIN. And AGAIN. And ...

I have already told you of my proof.

[aesthetics]

there is no truth to be gained through atheism, it is effectively a failed, pointless religion.

Hope he didn't bail on God but can't blame him bailing on RC.

Fortress, were you taught you were superior to people because you were a member of RC?

[Man of Steel]

Dawkin memes > Jesus memes.

Dawkins is the king of memetics....no one's arguing that LOL!!!

[NeilGM]

I never used to believe in God and use the same sort of sayings and disgust towards him. The problem with most people who do not believe in God is that they (like myself) never even read the books that the religions are based on, but used media, heresay and chinese whispers to get their facts.
All I would say to anyone who sets judgement on another religion is read the books first then make up your mind..


I will tell you now honestly, a man without God is a man who has nothing.

Ok, so your proof is your intelligence and strength?  Cool.

[Fortress]

No, not really.

I don't know what's going on with you in regards to this, so I am gonna bow out. I mean, how is it possible you cannot understand my points with that which we can't see, hear, touch, smell, etc.?
