Hearing a believer complaining about "mean answers" when no answer was mean...
Only because of a rise in Islamic births and a lack of objective education in Islamic countries. I'm not saying that I think that Islam will be the largest religion, just pointing out why it would...
No, I truly believe the rumors and hype are extremely silly.
It's like all other conspiracy theories, it sounds good if you believe it, but looking at it objectively shows how laughable it is. I doubt that you could say anything to change their minds as they...
I only capitalize it when it starts a sentence. I rarely see atheists capitalizing it on R&S. And it does not have to be a religion in order to capitalize it, it could be considered a proper name...
Other than a social gathering, there are no benefits that are inherent in religion.
Religion probably came from our ability to assign meaning to symbols (words, letters, glyphs, drawings etc). Since we can give symbols meaning, we tend to think that other things have meaning as...
If it were a religion, it would be the least religious one and we wouldn't have to be like others that try to convince themselves that "I don't have a religion, I have a relationship...".
There is no way that I can predict the end of human life, other than to say that any religious prediction is nonsense. Currently we are faced with several possibilities: we are consuming a huge...
No, the "bible codes" are no more real than the "moby dick codes" or the codes that you can get from any long boring book.
The Bible Codes have been debunked many times, and even if you just read...
Given that there is no evidence of the flood, of Noah, or that anyone has ever lived over 130 years. I'd say that Noah did not say anything to God.
We could go on and say that there simply is not...
No, the vast majority are either atheist or agnostic or both, less than 5% of scientists world wide are religious.
I think that that was the Jehovah's Witnesses, They've made a number of end of the world predictions.
They have since rewritten by what they meant then.
Yahoo doesn't, it just suggests where to put a post. As far as I know, only the people answering will "censure" you for posting in the wrong section.

There aren't any true religions. In order for Islam to be true, Christianity and Judaism are wrong however, Islam claims that the Bible supports it so that would mean that Islam was not actually...
Bisexuality as a range between hetro and homo is not a choice either. But yes, if a person did not realize they were bi, presented themselves as homo but were bi, or others thought they were homo, it...
They have been evolving for years, but yes, to treat a document claimed to be the truth as metaphorical does tend to water it down quite a bit. There are also theological problems created when...
Science does hands down.

Communism as implemented by Stalin was very much like a religion and it used strong emotions to support it. Patriotism, in general, is in many ways very similar to religious beliefs and passion .

Many belief systems incorporate guilt as a mechanism - this many or may not be intentional and guilt is not specific to belief. If you had spent significant amounts of time in a given religion then...
Anti-sex, strangely, sells nearly as well, as people seem to think that more restrictive moral systems are somehow more "moral".
The problem with that, of course, it that it makes it more blatantly obvious that religion changes with society. We know that religion changes slowly as society and culture do but it is not...
Sorry, I'll try to watch the video later, but yes the end statement is highly inaccurate and can be taken as an insult. While I tend to notice racial differences, I'm happy to say that my daughters...
