  • yeah lemme find the convo..

  • Sad we will probably never get rid of any of all these conceptual bric-a-brac, whatever they are ...

    I agree, I can't see us escape this one.

    It is innate in us, we seem to need religion, I doubt we can escape it any more than we can escape racism, sexism, tribalism, fear . . . . . .

    And even if we could get passed this stage in our growth - I can't see us doing it before we reach the bottle neck where bronze age mythology squeezes passed the technology that can realise it's peak fantasy.

    Good luck in there, if we don't hear from you in a couple of days, we will send a couple of regular posters in after you.

  • why are the threads on this guy so long....

  • But saying that If we had to have one preeminent world superstition - It would have to be Buddhism.

    If I had to pick a creator, it would be the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Serpent.

    cos we stopped talking about him ages ago.

    Zen Buddhism if I may revise.

    To be honest there is laziness in what I said, I chose Buddhism as the least insane superstition out of the popular cults, I am sure - with enough research - there are world views that depart from reality even less.

    yep. i agree you prolly had all the most popular forms of superstition covered.

  • Go on . . . ?

    Well, read #834, then your response reads :

    *@lpg, cannot disagree with anything you wrote above, and I take your point about the Vatican's (re: it's active encouragement of the HIV virus) - that given time the Vatican's authority on matters to do with the real world will (I use the word will hopefully) be eroded.

    I agree that we should be moving towards secularism - but as you say we aren't :(*

    aren't you more likely to see mutilation of women, oppression, torture (i.e everything that disgusts you) in fundamentalist religious regimes? how can you then say

    I don't think fundamentalism is the problem, I think 'moderate' (read 'intellectually dishonest, unthinking') religion is the problem.

    i'm not picking a fight, i just want to know where you stand, as-salaamu alaikum!

  • Pistanator + Liverpool = Tynan + Religion.

    Discuss. At Length. Using the multi-quote function.

    oh my god, i hadn't noticed the multi-quote function... this could get interesting.

    it probably won't though.

  • But Hume is alleged to have repented his sins on his death bed.

    What exactly is the probability of this miracle?

  • 'Miracles happen everyday, change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them all around you'

    That's the gayest thing ive ever seen on this forum!

    How Living on a Prayer is that?

  • I'm off to the docks.

  • why are the threads on this guy so long....

    He's famous,I'm surprised you have'nt meet this fella:)

  • yeah, but what is he famous for?

  • yeah, but what is he famous for?

    Making a name for himself by giving people grief on this forum.

    The religions have a stranglehold with the whole life after death thing, once it's accepted that this is it and there's nothing after then we might be able to move forward.

    I once had a conversation with a fundamentalist Christian who believed that unless you accepted Jesus, no matter how virtuous your life, you would burn in hell when you died. I asked about people who lead virtous lives, who have not heard of Jesus and Christianity, and she told me that's what missonaries are for....
    Should also be noted she went to see preachers at those big stadium gigs they do, and gave a perecentage of her income to one of them
