So why isn't this topic dead yet? To my knoweldge: Godwin's Law states that if someone, anyone bring up Nazis, the debate has offically degenerated to a flame war. Therefore, the topic is as good as dead, it only takes time for people to understand...  [Read More]

I think here is something, Achilles, that you have to realize. WE define religion. Not you. Us. We are the ones that answer to our God. We are the ones that write and read our Holy Books. You cannot tell us what to believe, because we tell ourselv...  [Read More]

As for the subject of atheists not being criminals... I actually read an autobiography of a atheist who was also criminal (a robber and a coke dealer, actually). He claimed that he basically did not believe in God, and saw it as useless. He basicall...  [Read More]

I suppose that's one possible response, however I don't imagine that choice will accomplish very much. Another option that might be more productive would be to shed the taboo of religious discussion, refuse to accept, "well, that's just what I b...  [Read More]

Would you not agree that it exists as a cultural construct, as other countries? It's still a construct though, and a construct that really has no basis in reality. I would have to disagree. Personally, I think it is fear of the different that driv...  [Read More]

Somehow, if you are going to call race "artifical", you may as well question every "artifical" construct as well, like, say, the United States of America. Where is proof that the USA really exist? It does not. No country exist rea...  [Read More]

Logical Proof that it is Likely that Ghosts Exists: 1) Many religions, like mine, believe in Ghosts. Example of ghosts would be demons, angels, "jinn", spirits, souls, etc. If any of these religions that believe in ghosts are correct and t...  [Read More]

Seems inconsistent. As you said, you don't believe "life is sacred or crap like that" so why is there a need to have 100% proven guilt? If you get it wrong, oh well, shrug. It's not like it was sacred. Right? Well, it's more of "Life...  [Read More]

The point was that I oppose death penalty because it is irrevocable... So is imprisonment. The time you waste in prison, 1 year of your life or more, can never come back. Even if you are not guilty, you still lost time, time that you could have used...  [Read More]

Do you not understand the implications of this theory, SilentScope? This does not contradict orthodox thinking, nor does it represent a great revolution. Yes, it's a footnote, but its an important footnote. This footnote supports the general theory t...  [Read More]
