I think its great to have faith and I do, but imagine how much better the world would be without any of the current religions.

There would be peace on earth if that was the case.

People would just find other things to fight over.Comment

People want to believe, if it's religion sports or whatever. They will find things to believe in and fight over.Comment

are there religious conflicts nowadays? are they violent in anyway? well if there are then those would be solved pretty quick...now wether or not the religious conflicts of today are in fact for religious purposes or because poeple are greedy and power driven is another story.the church is just a big powerful corporation with special ammunities IMO.Originally posted by Veterans Day

many, but you cant always kill two birds with one stone. i guess the only benefit of religion that i see is mental health and keeping those who beleive in it in line...but then again some people beleive killing others is "in line"Originally posted by Veterans DayI wonder how many crimes and nonsense is NOT committed because of peoples faith

Wrong.
Thats the stupidest thing ive read on GFY ever.
Thats like saying that the only way for there to be complete peace on earth is if we were all exactly identical and gray blobs.
No religion means less people doing good things in the name of god and still people fighting over race.Care about me?

Doesn't that say a lot about those people.Originally posted by Veterans DayHmm I never said they didnt, but plenty upon plenty of people keep a straight line life on faith based alone.
So they have to be intimidated by the fact that they will go to hell if they are bad will only go to heaven if they are good.(basically if the fear of god wasn't there these people would go around doing "bad" things---is what you are saying?)Comment

Twist it anyway you want, all Im sayin is there are millions of people that have faith and believe in certain values, morals, what have you, which keeps them "inline" as you say. Lets say fear of the unknownOriginally posted by rambler

And what of the bad things? You conveniently fail to consider that in your reasoning.Originally posted by kaliboy2g
Here's the equation...
Net Effect of Religion on the World = Good Things Done in the Name of Gods - Bad Things Done in the Name of Gods
You would have to be brainwashed beyond belief if you think the result of that equation is greater than zero.Comment

That equation is impossible to solve but think about this.
We get rid of religion, no more good things that are done in the name of God(s). But people are still going to fight over skin color, ethnicity, etc.
So it would mean just as much fighting and bad things, but less good things done.Care about me?

Wrong. You are still assuming that no "bad things" are done by religions, and that's a nonstarter, because I could find 20 examples in one copy of any major newspaper on any given day. Open your eyes dude.Originally posted by kaliboy2gComment

Dont kid yourself.Originally posted by CoolE
There are "bad things" done in the name of religion. Im agree
Just as people kill based on race and ethinicity.
Dont you get it?
If we had no religion we would still have the same shit happening, just instead it being blamed on different religions it will be blamed on different races or ethnicities.
Based on your logic what do you plan to suggest next? That we all give up all personality and beliefs and have no religion and be considered all the same race and be exactly alike so that no one could possibley have a reson to do "bad things"Care about me?

Obviously if you open any "major" magazine you will find "bad thiings" balmed on religon. That shit sells for media outlets, if they focused on the good no one would buy.Care about me?

People don't live for life on earth. They live for a fake life after death. This is the main reason why Earth is so fucked up. No one cares about what's going on now, but would rather follow some old fake ass prophets instead. We need to give up on the tool that is nothing more than a war rally, and live for Earth.Comment

Basically what you are articulating is the Christian-Muslim myth that we can't be good with God; that without God and religion we would all be a bunch of savages raping and pillaging one another. It's a pile of bullshit - just one of several scare tactics used by the controlling religions to keep people from thinking freely. Not only is it possible to be good without God, it's easier to be good - you don't have any church leaders (like Bin Laden or Falwell) telling you to do things that you know in your heart, and your brain, are just plain wrong.Originally posted by kaliboy2gComment

I also think that it's shitty to say that you can't disprove religion. It's like saying that you can't disprove that 22 13 32 12 32 will be the lotto numbers tomarrow.
"Then why are you alive? Where did you come from? How did Earth get here?"
I don't know, and neither do you. Using god to answer these questions is about as silly as me thinking that The Lord of the Rings is real.Comment

Eventually those who want to fight over stupid things will kill each other off ( natural selection) and the rest of the "normal" people can live happily ever after.(it probably comes as a surprise to all the idiots that there are actually "normal" people in this world who don't want to fight/kill over stupid things)Originally posted by pornguyComment
