To the tw religious ppl

I read bits of this stuff and frankly I think you may have been brainwashed. I'm atheist and have a pretty good understanding of christianity after being educated in a religious school most of my childhood life. To think an all powerful being is conscious of what you and I are doing right now is kind of narcissistic. The concept of heavenly reward, and hell for naughty people is primitive. I'm serious about the possibility of him being a result of Mary being artificially inseminated by a alien. I think life got here originally as bacteria off a meteorite. Are you into this "They put dinosaur bones here to test our faith?" cause apparently there are people who believe that shit. That is concerning. I think the most interesting part of the bible is basically around Paul the Apostle.
Here is an image of what may have happened to Paul in the desert.
That was apparently around 2000 years ago. Some versions of the bible read just like a UFO encounter for the desert event.

now you're just blaming religion for low iq
bowing down before a former president ain't the worst thing these people could be doing

Was watching In-Touch ministries again this Sunday morning. He was talking about Adam and Eve, the garden with the forbidden fruit. Eve takes a bite because the Devil told her it would be OK. They run away, hide behind another tree, but God finds them. The rest is history where all hell breaks loose.
This is the super power stories I can't believe. That all humans came from 2 people that ate the forbidden fruit.

see ngfm is a great example of what you get when you take a diehard believer and shake them off religion
they don't wake up the next day and start inventing calculus

i don't have it in me to make more effort posts explaining to validuzes like you and vanster that religion invented widespread literacy and education and that religious schools remain among the most successful in the world
anyone in the us who doesn't put their kids in a private religious school is basically guilty of child abuse
seriously is it 2006 or something let's all watch christopher hitchens totally dunk on a rabbi!!
it's probably genetic that some people are vulnerable to being dogmatic in their beliefs
which means they are stupid and easily manipulated
pretty much anyone that took a gender studies class and left feeling shook is the same type of person that sees joel osteen in person and feels the same way

and remind me, who was it who did their level best to stop people from translating the bible because they didn't want the average joe to be able to read it for himself?
who are the ones currently campaigning to present creationism as an equally respectable alternative to science in schools?
why, you're right, that was religion too
but the more important point is that none of the activities you listed actually require religious belief. it just so happens that the churches were the ones who had the money, power, and infrastructure to be able to afford them
do let me know if you come up with a positive benefit of religion that cannot also be achieved via secular means
Why do you watch that?
It's all superstitious nonsense
Bump.
Control is definitely a positive thing.
We're coming up on Christmas and I can't wait to see the signs "he's the reason for the season" by people who don't know the reason they put up a Christmas tree, or wreaths on their doors etc.
Opiate of the masses.
