I agree. Religion has done nothing good for us for almost 2000 years.

What the -blam!-? Did u even go to school
-
One word crusaid
-
Actually yes I did.
-
Take a History lesson on how crazy the world has been in the last 2000 years
-
I have. That's why I said nothing good has come from religion in 2000 years. It has caused death and hindered the advancement of humanity.
-
Fcking dumbass
-
OH realy!? Has it now!? Oh shit i must've just totaly forgotten about the entire British Monarchy hmmmm now lets see what they did... well they definatly did have alot of wars over who should be king APPOINTED by God, i guess that might've made for alot of technological advancement in the middle ages, whats next... oh wait yea thats right more wars! more advancements! this time explorers and missionary might have try and help those poor un-christian countrys and set up camp there all in the name of God, hmm that sounds like an age of scientific exploration to me and colonization, hmm what else could there be?? OH all these GOD and King lovers might want more tea and biscuits OH shit why not have an industrial revolution and world trade holy crap!
-
Are you seriously that dense?? That entire time period set the human race back 1000 years as far as technological advancement goes.

Edited by moist nana: 11/16/2014 11:36:41 AMAlright i'll ask how could have technological advancements gone faster without Religion?
-
Well for one the dark ages would've never happened. Yes the plague still would've but for over 500 years there were absolutely no technological advances. Also when somebody made a discovery (ex. Copernicus discovering we orbit the sun not the other way around) the church shut them down. They told people science was witchcraft. You're following a religion that simply uses scare tactics to control the crowds and get rich off of them. That's it.
-
The churches can sometimes get kinda off-track and messed up. Can't remember his name, but there was. Pope who liked to let prisoners go in his compound and masturbate while his guards shot them like fish in a barrel. It's not the religion that's the problem, it's some of the people who claim to be a part of the religion.
-
Oh -blam!- me dead Copernicus? Srsly? Im talking about bigger breakthroughs

Edited by II PRO II z: 11/16/2014 11:49:01 AMSeriously? Discovering that Earth isn't the center of the universe isn't big enough for you? F*ck off kid. You follow a dying religion and are too ignorant to see any form of truth. Thousands of gods have come and died. Yours is next.
-
Im not religiouse im just pointing out your dumb ass opinion
-
Pick up a history book buddy
-
Oh what are you talking about some ancient roman maths book that got scribbled over? Your asking "oh whats anything got to do with religion" well without it NONE that would've happend, and your right in due course some random chinese fella probably wouldve invented how to fly, but as it is, History goes ALOT futher back than 2000 years, but you can see in that time frame Humans have gone bat shit crazy with everything till the modern era, why? Because a group of god loving warmongers made it that way, thats why, how else wouldve they invented ways to perfectly drill steel or keep all the collective information of exotic animals plants in one place for people to study, or invent machines to do mass work for us, your right it possibly could've been done someother way without religion, but as it is, it didnt, infact its religion u can thank for advancements going so fast in the last 2000 years, it could've happen someother way but it didn't
-
Have you ever actually picked up a book? Have you even heard of the dark ages? I'm a history major kid. You're wrong.
-
I cant kno that, you're a dumb ass kid on the internet to me, use that History major and compare all the advancements under a "modernish" religious society compared to all the unga bungas before them
-
Someone gets it
-
Yes I do and just for the record I am not an atheist, I am a deist. This means that I do believe in a higher power but I do not claim any religion. I am also capable of changing my beliefs to accept new facts unlike christianity. My belief system changes along with new discoveries whereas with christianity or islam their brains are so hardwired to believe one thing that they will ignore or even reject the truth and new facts in order to protect their beliefs. Psychologically speaking this is a mental disorder and it also shows what the indoctrination of kids into a religion does to the human psyche. It becomes such an integral part of it that they are literally incapable of changing it after a certain point.
-
Ok and I can respect that wall of text
-
Sorry I kind of went on a rant there. I'm actually debating with a very religious person right now about the bible and it's like arguing with a wall. Any time I give him information he can't rebuttal with "because God said so" or "because gods all powerful" he changes the subject. Also xboxdotcom is an imbecile I've ran into him on here a couple times.
-
Yeah I have had those arguments, they are useless. Look up Christian circular logic memes. Many lols
-
I just asked him if he evolved from monkey or if his life is the result of 6000 years of incest and inbreeding and he stopped responding.
