    Other theorys besides Evolution

    King... I will assume you are talking about alternatives to evolution rather than abiogenesis. (Since previous posts have answered that) Do remember that Evolution has two parts to it: The "Fact": That there are observed changes in populations of organisms over time. The "Theory": The...

    Hiroshima

    That's a little naive: Have you not seen the nature programs where tribes of chimpanzee fight others, with individuals often killed and eaten? How about Male lions killing another male's cubs when he takes over the pride? Most of the animal kingdom fight over females - and while death is...

    Hiroshima

    One of the key differences that separates 'normal' weapons from weapons that are branded as 'unethical' and banned under the Geneva convention is the ability to guarantee death. An atomic bomb has a significant portion of its blast radius achieving 100% fatalities, the same can be said of...

    Hiroshima

    Forget about the 'nuclear' word... have you considered how many people died from normal bombs in the war? As many as 140,000 people in Hiroshima and 80,000 in Nagasaki may have died from the bombings by the end of 1945 Fire bombing of Tokyo: The death toll was at least 80,000, and perhaps...

    Why atheists are bothered?

    Apologies I didn't source those quotes: First from Wiki under Spanish colonization of the Americas and second from here: http://www.skeptically.org/enlightenment/id7.html

    Why atheists are bothered?

    We're not just talking about North America (hello? there is a world out there! ;) ) (My bold) An obviously back at home, good old witch craft was getting a bashing... (My bold) But we are digressing and getting into stupid point for points that are only exposing how all people can be...

    Why atheists are bothered?

    I'd add portugal in there too... Spain and Portugal who between them carved up the new world under agreement from the Pope and proceeded to massacre entire civilisations under enforced christian conversion? But we're digressing, and this point has been argued countlessly but as always falls...

    Why atheists are bothered?

    The poeple killed in your so-called 'atheist' regimes were killed because they objected to having a system forced upon them. Stalin - imprisoned and killed people who threatened the socialist ideals that he was implementing in russia, as well as the countless millions who died due to his poor...

    Why atheists are bothered?

    I agree with the article very much. And I also agree with your point that, yes, regardless of the reasons/rationality of anyone's belief they do have a right to live to it... BUT as the article highlights with extreme cases why would anyone wish to place themselves in a situation where their...

    Why atheists are bothered?

    No I agree that this article is not itself about Atheists speaking out, but it is an example of some of the religious demands on other people that are making Atheists speak out. In this case the examples are so extreme/ridiculous that even the moderately religious are starting to complain...

    Why atheists are bothered?

    Having been quite a long time lurker on this site and others, I was jolted into thinking about the whole upsurgence of Atheism by this excellent article in the British Times that really highlights, for me, why Atheists as a group have decided in the last few years to start to speak out...

    A new earth-like planet forming...

    I guess they could say that God thinks this world is too mucked up and needs to start again: FSM: "Dang, they're closing all the stripper factories... well lets try again and see if they can get it right this time"
