And this is in the riches country in the world, pardon me if I think there is something wrong somewhere. Some fat cat is getting all the cream while the rest are left licking the bowl. If that's the American way then I'm glad I was not born in America. Do any of you think Americans deserve...

Why don't you name those countries? there are countries that have been taken over by bad people but they were bad people because they were bad people not because they were atheists or religious. The US kills 50,000 of it's population every year just by having a rubbish health care system, and...

This has nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans, I am British looking into the US from the outside so my opinion counts for nothing. I could list all the problems with the US health system but perhaps I should let others more qualified do it, please take a look at a few of these, you...

In what way? are there Christians who accept evolution or are there not? If they exist those Christians must either be deluded or be secret atheists. justlookinla 99% of your arguments fail before they have even been typed.

Is that why there are so many Christians who accept evolution? because they are secretly atheists? When predators hunt they always look to kill the weakest because they are easier to catch. When preachers preach they usually go to deprived areas because badly educated people are more...

I will clean up my act if you will promise to get some treatment.

I did nothing of the sort, I simply asked why you would believe one myth and not the other.

That's where the denial part comes in, there was reality and know how then after some denial kicked in came their religion. Every religious person on this planet has the ability to separate their religion from the reality that is their life. That ability is what makes atheists sit up, just...

That as you know was separate from their crazy beliefs, what happened to the business after they all ceased to exist?

The Heaven's Gate cult lived in complete and absolute denial of everything that made sense and died because of it. What has being a top-notch webmaster have to do with denial? nothing.

But not Mohammed. At least the person or persons who wrote the Quran had the sense to realise a few things, If you want to travel any kind of distance you need a horse and in order to fly the horse would need wings, so if Mohammed wanted to get up to heaven he would need a flying horse. To...

For myself I am very guilty of "broad brushing" but in my defence I always assume people will not be picky and realise I can not possibly be including "everyone". If we need to qualify everything we say we could be here for hours just saying which people are not included. Sometimes I forget to...

Yes I really didn't need to include the word extremist, belief in anything without evidence is going to require denial.

Religious extremism also demands a great deal of denial, not only denial but very selective denial. AV, do you believe that Mohammed rode up to heaven on a winged horse? no? but you do believe that Jesus was raised from the dead?

Do you align the Bible with a comic book hero? if you do I can see where you are coming from.

You may enjoy it but is it true? or is truth not an issue?

Yes there are and have always been very smart people who have been religious, which only goes to show that even smart people can be duped into believing nonsense. Newton believed in alchemy, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes) believed in fairies. Francis Collins is the perfect example...

Why should anyone worship anything?

It's not me equating that, there are facts and figures showing that it's true, the more backward a country is the more religious it is. http://www.timescrest.com/coverstory/why-are-backward-countries-more-religious-2555

Yes I have heard of the book The Selfish Gene, but I have not read it. Yes we are talking about natural processes. The word "selfish" does not mean selfish as we would use it, it's more like a lion who kills another lion then kills it's young so that the female will only have his...
