People who persistently believe in [whatever] despite evidence to the contrary aren't just supporting that particular IDEA they are supporting a whole fucking way of decision making that is irrational and unsupportable, and left to its own devices will infect and destroy a civilized way of life.

How long do you think we would survive if , say, bridge engineers were allowed to sign off on structures by saying "I've looked it over, and I've prayed over it, and I have faith that it will continue standing this year." Nuclear reactors should get this treatment too right?

Stupidity, laziness and ignorance cause enough problems in this world, adding to it by condoning irrational magical thinking is criminal.

Too much sublime irony in this cartoon. Whoever wrote it must be super-smart and shit.

Religion is like a penis.
it's fine to have one.
it's fine to be proud of it.
but please don't whip it out in public and start waving it around.
and PLEASE don't try to shove it down my children's throats.

Firstly, there is no "evidence to the contrary" with regard to God, there is simply no evidence to support it.

Secondly, not only has our 'civilization' been shaped by centuries of Christianity, some of the greatest scientists and thinkers in history have held religious beliefs. And freedom of thought or belief is arguably a major factor in where we are today.

If you want to argue that the Soviet Union, or China under the Cultural Revolution, was more civilized, decent or advanced than countries where religions have been tolerated, I'm all ears.

As you already know, that simply does not happen, has never happened, and is unlikely to ever happen, anywhere in the world, despite thousands of years of religious belief and billions of people believing in God. So I'm not sure why you're inventing such a ludicrous scenario to make your point.

What's the alternative to tolerating other beliefs? Gulags to 're-educate' people?

Religion allows one person to feel superior over his fellow man who doesn't share his belief. It flatters his ego, builds his pride, allows him to hate and ignore others who don't think like he does.

Now we see grammar used for the same reason.

An education was lost on you.

Paul has been away from the UK for so long that his English has become a bit rusty, I am sure his Czech is fluent and faultless.

Lost on you as well since you do not have an education.

True I have become rusty with my grammar, my Czech is enough to go shopping and do what I need to. Still very poor. I was too busy while working to learn any more than what was required to get girls naked and performing well.

Now I can't be asked. Adding Czech lessons to my now very busy life isn't on the agenda. :1orglaugh

Been to the gardening centre and now off to do some planting, lawn is looking good. Plus I need to do some cooking.

Onto it, can I use the idea for a blog of my own?

ba·nal·i·ty   [buh-nal-i-tee, bey-]
noun, plural ba·nal·i·ties.
1.
the condition or quality of being banal, or devoid of freshness or originality: the banality of everyday life.
2.
an instance of this: We sat around the dinner table exchanging banalities.

What's your views on immigrants to the UK who can't be arsed to learn the basics of the language whilst taking government hand outs...

Lolsome hypocrite.

You already have lots of stolen content on your other blog, why not just steal someone else's idea too.

:D

Welcome aboard ...

If anyone needed proof that this mythical never wrote the bible. The quote "Thou Shalt Not Spill Thy Seed!" is it.

It's been twisted by the church for millenium. But leave that aside, it has nothing to do with masturabation, http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible.cfm?b=Gen&c=38&v=1 It's about fucking the wife of your dead brother.

Thou Shalt Not Spill Thy Seed! A man hasn't got a seed or seeds, he has fertilizer. That applies to every living creature that needs a male and female to produce offspring. If the bible crunchers are right god created every living thing on earth. The bible is the word of god. He would of known the truth and what to write.

Early man didn't and yet again got it wrong and told everyone this is what god wants you to do. :upsidedow

So does every other bible cruncher.

Why aren't they telling us to fuck the wife of our dead brothers instead. As that's what the bible says?

As I said in other threads, fuck with the religions, they're all flawed.
