Will the Internet Kill Religion?

Oh no, not another religious thread. But I know how you eat them up, Flood. Not only is the internet a factor in the religious decline, but also education is too. I found that really interesting. Discuss how we're all wrong.

    • No, it won't. The only thing that could kill religion is definitive proof of how the universe started and what happens after death. The Internet could help that information spread more quickly, but only direct evidence against religion can kill religion. Then again, as Bill Nye helped show, even that won't convince some people out there, so maybe nothing can.

    • Internet cure stupidity? C'mon Otth. You know better than that. This is the place where people are encouraged to be as retarded as they can possibly be. I've always said, it was only the [i]information[/i] age for a few years, then it became the [i]gossip[/i] age.

              • I think it comes back to education. Education is the acquisition of knowledge. You can do that formally in school or informally online. Either way you get it. I forget who said it, but God lives in the shadows. To me this means that things we don't understand we attribute to God. Where two hundred years ago it was thought that God himself created each species and controlled the lives of men, he has been reduced to the entity that flashed the Big Bang and is a silent guider of evolution. As we bring more into the light, there is less and less to attribute to divine intervention.

              • I can agree, but I don't think it will kill religion. It will more likely just get rid of the religious nut-jobs. Might just make religion reasonable and classy. But the older generation of nut-jobs still exist but in time religion and science will love in harmony more than now.

              • It won't kill it, but it's definitely been attributing to its loss in popularity.
