alchemist   35 #38 Posted July 16, 2014 No problem. What's your sky pixie told you recently ? Inquisition or crusade ? The sooner you religious (all religions) nutjobs die off the sooner we can advance as a species. The 12th century called, they want their beliefs back  I think its rather sad really when people like yourselves spot an obviously religious themed thread and all you can do is spout inane rambling stupidity. OK, we get it you dont like religion. Some do, thats life.  Why on earth do you think that you are going to be able to change anyones mind by your obviously inciteful and deep arguments?  ---------- Post added 16-07-2014 at 08:58 ----------  Well said !!!  Is it? Really??  What groundbreaking earth shattering argument has he used to defend his position on religion? A mocking stuttering tirade I grant you but a reasonable well thought out argument against the existance (or otherwise) of a deity or deities? I dont think so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I dont think so  Isn't necessary, there are plenty well thought out arguments for the "against the existence" debate. Those that argue for the evidence of existence have come up with zilch other than God told me so, or it's in the theological Beano.

Jmack   10 #41 Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) This may not be strictly relevant but I just love it.  http://www.atheistmemebase.com/2014/06/07/militant-atheist/  On the issue in hand, the Church of England is falling to pieces, the congregations are literally dying out. I bet that by the end of the next decade the C of E will have completely transformed, Instead of being in every village and town, the C of E will consist of a cathedral in every major city. And some scenic Church's for American tourists. However, I don't look forward to this. There is no such thing as a vacuum, as the C of E retreats into oblivion and pointlessness other forms of Christianity advance into it's place. And it looks like American style evangelicalism and conservative Pentecostalism are on the march. So instead of having old Bishops with contradictory views and out of date opinions, will could end up with Charismatic young pastors with white teeth and good hairstyles. Trust me, a rebirth of Christian evangelicalism is not unlikely. Edited July 17, 2014 by Jmack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

The sooner you religious (all religions) nutjobs die off the sooner we can advance as a species. The 12th century called, they want their beliefs back Some of us have already advanced as a species.

Personally, I'll stick with science if you don't mind. However, if you believe in such things, I can recommend the works of Hans Christian Anderson or perhaps the Brothers Grimm. I imagine you could probably get somebody to read them to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
