Just because 70% of the population believes in virgin birth, miracles and resurrection doesn't cut it any longer. Get your 10 commandments and manger scenes out of public places and go to church when you want to talk religion. I'll do you a favor...if I want to hear about the worship of ancient gods I'll go to a church, temple or mosque.
You spend a lot of time in the wrong forum if you don't want to hear about religion.
But yea... it is is fact, all BS when it comes to literal truth.
What I'm trying to decide is whether a lie totally invalidates any value for religion in real life. After all, the liars are all long dead and the whole thing has evolved into a useful sort social organization and excellent coping mechanism for billions of people. Is the best solution really to just throw it all away?
This all quite amusing , but a waste of time.
Rebellion will always make excuses to maintain their wicked ways, blaming those who try to live better, for being less than perfect, yet those blaming, are making no attempt to do any better them selves . Stupid as hell . I have yet to meet an athiest with a life that exceeds the values blessings intervention and promise ,a genuine Christian enjoys, not to mention all their own giving to help the less fortunate of the world which most churches do and have done from the inception of this country. Christianity has allways been at the fore front of helping other nations better them selves, by education medicine and financial assistance in the billions. including their own lives , not just for the Gospel, but in saving the lives of others. Nonbelievers only get involved if there is a tax write off.
Choosing to turn a blind eye to faith in God is your choice, but mind you , whether you believe in Him or not does not change His existance, nor your accountability to Him in the end.
The overwhelming evidence of God, stands no matter what men use to deny His existance .
Every time I know of, that men have tried to establish some evidence to evolution, it is proven to be false speculation,and the lack of solid evidence and condemned on their own.
True sicience is honest, it does not speculate , other wise it is faith, not science.
So for the athiest to be honest in my opinion, he can say is "I prefir rebellion to god , rather than obligation to god" . But admitting there is a god makes one accountable, and that, is the foster of rebellion.
in my opinion.

snip of some other inane stuff.
Really...really? Being American Indian I have to disagree with this statement. Believe it or not, the indigenous people of this contintent were quite happy and content prior to the coming of your "Word". "Manifest Destiny", you know that little thing about it being God's will and it necessarily meant pushing the American Indian out of the way and that wonderful Christian concept about raising us from our "savage and unhappy state" have done so much toward our people "bettering ourselves" haven't they? I would say look around and just see how much Christianity and "civilization" has done for us as a whole. I will submit that we were a lot better off prior to the arrival of your "Word".
As to tax breaks, why don't you ask Pat Robertson and James Dobson about that? They have a lot more first-hand knowledge of that than most folks.

First that is not because we don't practice self delusion. I am much more moral than a number of so called good christians I know, and know for fact they are unethical greedy bastards, whom will screw over everyone they can for the all mighty dollar.
And don't talk to me about helping others, I have dedicated over 30 years of my life to help others, your ignorance about what Atheists do for their fellow man and community is astonishingly stupid, based on your arrogance of believing in some imaginary god.
The ignorance expressed through your arrogant rant is astonishing, and none of it is factual.

Oh, come on. You know smallpox-filled blankets were the Will of God.
