The One True Religion

[jsanders]

If Rich's post was deleted by one of them (it may not have been), it was quickly done (overzealous) and if they took exception to the scientology bit then they could be bible bashers - so I stand by my comment.

Actually Col,

The quote was from another thread, illustrating my point even more succinctly, there doesn’t seem to be any thread that is immune to impetuous attacks on Christianity.

It’s boring and suffices only to prove that atheists haven’t evolved more than the rest of us.

The more you argue about religious topics the more you prove that atheism is a religion.

Which of course, is the premise for this thread.

...just as the highly evolved christian and the highly evolved muslim??

I think that there has been quite a bit said about Muslims and Christians. The point I’m trying to make is that some atheists don’t seem to get it that they are themselves, fanatics.

I'll agree with that


...most of the time

And some followers of religion don't either......Just my two penn'orth.

However I think even you'd find it hard to reconcile the numbers of humans slaughtered throughout history in the name of Atheism with those slaughtered in the name of God or Gods.

The generic term I used may (or may not) cover several people - I really don't know or care.

So it must have been some more of your worthless opinions...

You seem a bit on edge today old buddy, everything OK?

History is replete with slaughters, for all kinds of reasons.

Mostly the religious ones stem from governments getting into the business of dictating beliefs.

It could be said that, while not strictly in the name of atheism, but it was at its core, the Soviets decimated their own Christian and Jewish populations.

If there was a post about Scientology that has been deleted then it has either been physically removed from the database by whoever edited it, or it was edited by the person that posted it before the time limit had passed that puts the EDITED BY on it.

As for jsanders' ridiculous claims about atheism, I will post at length when I get home from work.

We can't wait for the authority to finally set us all straight...

Yes, this should be good.

Yes, this should be good.

Maybe we should take off from work and go home to wait.

On the other hand, they wouldn't the first people you'd turn to if you wanted a barn assembled.

Though if anyone is up on movies, Kirstie Alley did star in that one movie, for richer or poorer, where her and her husband hide out in Amish country. so she might have some experience with putting up a barn

Didn't Harrison Ford do an amish flick?

Yep and Kelly tossed aside her religion for a toss with Harrison

That was the one I was on about 'Witness'.

Okay, I'll keep her in reserve in case Ms McGillis is busy.

Did you google that or did you remember her name?

 

[Rich]

I remembered, maybe something to do with looking much like a nun
