All joking aside, aren't you even just a little skeptical about all these stupid claims and stories about miracles and the man in the sky?

You are living in the 21st century, and we know a lot about the natural world, that at one time could be described as magic or the will of some spirit or God of the mountain. Oh and what about all the other Gods that have come and gone throughout the ages.

Now I believe, that if you really tried to think for yourself, you would see just how ridiculous all this religious nonsense really is. :-|


Dude, why would I be skeptical? Its called faith. Belief.

My faith is in perfect sync with the 21st century. Be good, help your fellow man. What more else do i want?


Faith in what, belief in what? It's healthy to be skeptical, blind faith is for people who can't or won't think for themselves. We now have the power of scientific inquiry. We no longer need stories from the dark age of mans existence on this planet. Now we can actually seek the answer to life and the natural world, instead of making things up.

Your faith comes from adherence to a belief that was part of your social conditioning. It's just a blind acceptance of what others were brought up to believe within your social group. Don't you think it's about time you took the chance to free yourself from this repetitive kind of thinking? :-|



Nope, quite happy where I am. :)

You mean. You are happy to remain brainwashed, and you have no intention of questioning any of what you have been brought up to believe? And you think you are capable of critical thought. #-o

Scary......... 8-[ 8-[ 8-[ 8-[ 8-[ 8-[

And that's why Islam is so dangerous. It infects people, then it's just a short step to fundamentalism and extremism.

I think Winston Churchill nails it with his comment:"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries!

Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia
in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many
countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods
of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the
Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and
refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan
law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as
a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the
faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.


Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion
paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde
force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant
and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising
fearless warriors at every step, and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the
strong arms of science, the science against which it (Islam) has vainly struggled,
the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”

I just though you might appreciate a good piece of honest writing, and it doesn't come much better than Winston Churchill. He knew what Islam meant to the world over a hundred years ago, and the above quote is even more relevant today. :-|

When did you find out that you had a loathing for organised religion?

I was brought up in the Christian faith, but I had a healthy skepticism for what I was being taught at an early age, and it wasn't long before I had worked out religion was a load of shi*t. I then read a lot of books on Eastern faiths such as Buddhism and Taoism, and they do add some insightful philosophy to life. However, I also read books like the God Delusion by Richard Dawkins and whatever doubt I had was galvanised into a complete rejection of fairy stories, masquerading as truths by people who claim to know the mind of God and act on his instruction.

Then of course, there was the "War" in Iraq X2 Saddam/WMD by the fundamentalist Christians of America with team GB playing a supporting role, 9/11 and the "War" in Afghanistan with everything being predicated on opposing faiths, the Christians against the Muslims and vice versa. When we all know what it was really about, Oil and Arms' dealing and having strategic outposts positioned all over the world.

Even so, what really brought it home, was the Murder of Lee Rigby by two radicalised Muslims. Quite honestly, I though, fu*k that, why should religion hold a privileged position in society, where it fails to receive the ridicule, it so richly deserves. So I started slagging off idiots who allow themselves to be brainwashed into believing this shi*.


And here we are... :-|
