Lets put it this way if we where to tax churches in the US we would make an extra 70 billion a year to pay off are deficit. Plus if you look around the world and see all the fancy multimillion dollar churches that are built out of gold when there are millions of starving children in the world then you know its all about profit. This is why the church trys so hard to brainwash you to deny logic and reason, because it is a business and its all about profit.. Of course it is. But it is also about controlling the sheep too: the churches run the brainwashing machine such that it's followers blindly accept whatever the church says, without question. And this brainwashing machine then goes on to tell them that the rich deserve to be all but tax-exempt. And continues the lie that these super-rich will magically create jobs, just because they are rich... .... meh. It goes hand-in-glove: True Believers™ make the best sheeple.

As long as people believe there are loopholes to get out of death, they will waste time worshipping the fabricators of these promises. As long as people believe in the promise of heaven and the threat of hell, they will be frightened, weak people who drink the kool-aid of the latest fad in theology. The skewed perspectives of peoples experiences is what parents will try to shove down their children's throats to perpetuate the myth. Again, those that can't square off with reality will cling to myth.....their crutch. They are welcome to a mental crutch, if they like. So long as they stop getting tax support for it, that is.

I only need to scroll back in this thread a few weeks, if that, to find some godbot shooting me down in flames for expressing the truth re most church people probably nearly choked on a silver spoon after birth. Then THEY tell us "Thou shall't not bear false witness." What double standards.

You see Christians denying their faith all the time now in debates with atheists. I think it's because on all the how to debate an atheist websites and videos The Hovind bunch always ignore questions and points made about Christianity, usually using the excuse... We'll talk about that later. Of course never doing so or jut saying Christianity is perfect next question! Lmfao! It's how they are programmed, take their religion out of the debate because that is uncomfortable for them and just use the bigoted atheist attack lines. Bob of Quantum-Faith wrote: <quoted text> Aaaaand your melt-down continues unabated. too funny! All it took, was finding the right buttons to push, and right on cue, you go all ballistic. Proving you are just another True Believer™. Thanks!

http://www.atheismuk.com/2013/02/07/events/th... http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2011/mar/27/b... I'm so unimpressed by South Park I doubt it is worth giving this offering a chance, but I thought I'd mention it. Quote, "Starting off in the Mormon mecca, Salt Lake City, Utah, the story follows a mismatched pair of proselytisers, Elders Price (Andrew Rannells) and Cunningham (Josh Gad). The former is the clean-cut ideal of an LDS doorbell-pusher: white-bread, well-groomed and safely asexual. Cunningham, however, is a fat, dim-witted man-child who confuses Mormon mythology with The Lord of the Rings. Despite Price's hope for missionary work in Orlando, Florida, the two are ordered to save souls in war-torn, poverty-stricken Uganda. Their evolving friendship lays the emotional foundation for the show, and gives even the cruellest jokes about racism and homophobic self-loathing a sweet, innocent finish. That human dimension reminds you that the comic genius of South Park (heading into its 15th season) relies on children blinded by naivety, but who see through society's lies." Unquote. "comic genius"? We'll see.

And it isn't the only discipline with problems - the current record for fraudulent papers is held by anaesthesiologist Yoshitaka Fujii, with 172 faked articles. These scandals highlight deeper cultural problems in academia. Pressure to turn out lots of high-quality publications not only promotes extreme behaviours, it normalises the little things, like the selective publication of positive novel findings – which leads to "non-significant" but possibly true findings sitting unpublished on shelves, and a lack of much needed replication studies. http://m.guardiannews.com/science/blog/2012/n... < fraud does happen in the sciences > Your example using psychology to show science is broken falls on its face. If you will bother to actually read polymath's post, you will notice that polymath classes psychology as not being real science.

Oh! Is someone angry? Oh yes he is! Look just because I have factually crushed you repeatedly shouldn't get you upset, instead rejoice at how all of atheists have improved your life. After all you don't post in the Christian forum. You are drawn to the logical superior even if you are unable to fully understand. Bravo for that.

Don't you think? I mean if you have capability to think!!(Boy this IS an insult)!!

You have continued to fail to address the problem with Muhummud's pedophilia and illiteracy. Until you can explain these? You have nothing to say.

Well, it's a lot easier to prove the absence of god vs. a god...have you ever seen god? Has anyone that is a credible witness and not schizophrenic? Where is your god and this heaven you speak of? No one can prove any of that to me but I can tell you what happens to you when you die from a biological satndpoint...you urinate, deficate, go stiff and become yummy nourishment for the worms and beetles, thus giving back to nature for all you've taken from it in your lifetime and what happens to the part of you that thinks and dreams and feels??? No one knows, maybe this is just one of many forms of existance and there is "life" or personal realization beyond the physical...and maybe everything just goes black and you turn into food and fertilizer...that's the beauty of what I believe in...I believe that no one knows forsure and there is no point even thinking, worrying or caring about it until it happens. Why waste your life living for your death? Experience all you can...alcohol and drugs are awesome as long as your responsible. If you've never done them you know nothing about them and therefore really don't have a legitimate opinion or argument about drugs...kinda like me talking about tennis although I know nothing about it and have never played it, not my place. Sex is amazing, best you can feel without drugs or booze. Only the ones who don't or can't have it all the time or have some personal intamacy issues think it's taboo...nothing wrong with feeling good with someone else and making them feel good. Why pay for sattelite TV when you can get it for free? Suckers... As long as you're not hurting anyone else who cares!! You can't get the true joy and experience of swimming the ocean of life with your waterwings on and staying in the shallow end, never jumping off the high diving board...now stop wasting your time thinking about what's after this and just do as much as you can while your here...cheers to my homies, Christian and Athiest.

I just think religion is a disease of the mind like many others. In my work I hire people and I never hire believers. You can drop little hints to ask without offending and they will tell you. Some are obvious some harder. After that you can pick other attributes not to hire or keep interviewing until you get one that has the skills without the mental problem of god. Some religions are more nuts than others as well. Haven't met one yet where their god has come back to give them the job.
