People have been conditioned as was I. But there comes a certain point the bullshit should reach a level in which you realize this is just hocus pocus and a means of control.

Yea, agreed, as a child you believe all shit, but 15+... okay, at least 18+ if you were living in near-prison conditions restrained by your family... you just have to be able to process information enough to realize it's fantasy

Quan be pulling no punches, how will beefy respond. 🙂

The retardation level in this thread is over 8,000.

The sooner people realize I am indeed the voice of reason the sooner their lives, their happiness, their overall productivity begins to RISE!!

Yea you can. Moral relativism.

Believing in the fantasy if religion is about as realistic as worshipping the force from Star Wars. Not saying religion doesn't serve a function to society but it's clearly a fairy tale not backed by any facts.

It's clearly not a fairy tale unless you can prove it's a fairy tale. I'm not out to prove you religion or God are real, but if you're going to sit there and claim it's magic, you'd have to prove that. Since you can't, lets move on.

Substitute political ideology for religion as an excuse, and you'll get more killing.

That isn't how science works. I don't have to disprove something you have to prove it. Faith is a bullshit excuse people who can't think for themselves justify why they believe in something they can't prove. Just like centuries ago people thought the gods were angry when they'd get a natural disaster. Silliness.

That isn't how science works. I just said I wasn't trying to convince you about God or religion. If science was trying to convince the world religion was a farce, the onus would be on it to do so and so far it hasn't and won't because it's not trying to.

Faith is a bullshit excuse people who can't think for themselves justify why they believe in something they can't prove

And moral relativism is a bullshit excuse for people who want to do whatever they want and justify it somehow.

Then again, I think you have no understanding of the definition of faith, since faith is something that can't be proven. People don't scream "faith" everytime they can't prove something. Also lol@sheep mentality. Insecure people always mention that. If you're going to claim religious people are sheep, I'll throw in the same dumb argument for moral relativists, except they're too insecure so they have a snobby holier than thou attitude.

Just like centuries ago people through the gods were angry they'd get a natural disaster. Silliness.

That's only one aspect that's been to be antiquated. In the future, other aspects may be, or they may not.

No "religion" or ideology is evil, people are evil.

Most scientists realize they don't have to prove anything as it's rather a crude manner of thinking and all things are evidentiary based. You'd think someone could prove religion were true by now but nah, faith.

People who believe in anything without evidence, logic, and common sense are sheep afraid to think that things just happen for no reason.

Your mind is too close minded to talk about this so just drop it.

So what about an ideology created by evil people?

Well I agree with you that people corrupt things/positions not necessarily the ideas themselves but some not widely accepted religions do embrace evil aka selfishness.

Wrong. Most scientists realize they can't prove religion wrong, and it doesn't contradict science.

That's a complete misrepresentation and a poor rationalization on your part in order to justify your belief that you're too smart for "that shit." The irony of that statement is your argumentative abilities, which involve throwing out shit devoid of, or in spite of, logic or proof. So either you're hypocritical or you're not the special snowflake you think yourself to be.

Your mind is too close minded to talk about this so just drop it.

Transation: Nobody actually believes I'm a special snowflake and too smart for religion but I also can't carry on an intellectual debate about so complex an issue for me, so I'll just call someone close minded and end the debate.

As you say, concession accepted 👆
