What makes [religious] beliefs extremely dangerous, is its ability to override common sense, and then to enforce its own illogicality as non-questionable law on each and every believer, whilst fostering discrimination against all non-believers.

Right on sister. There is danger in believing science theory as truth. It turns the idea of science into a religion, when science should only be the gathering of knowledge. Then all those science theory religion believers discriminate against believers of other religions, because they are non-believers to them.

Religion is based on Arts (literature).

Science is based on Mathematics (statistics, calculus, algebra, probability, geometry etc.).

Scientific theories are developed using Math.  They are validated (or invalidated) in the lab.  There is no faith involved.
Religious dogma was developed by people to control other people.

I urge you to learn more about science before you speak about it.

New scientific theories are being developed as we speak.

If your belief system is based on the fact that something is mysterious and unknown therefore it must be God, get ready for this belief system to be shaken to its core.

If you think God is behind the Big Bang, be prepared to move your God concept further into unknown.

Earth is spinning on its axis, it goes around the Sun, Solar system is a vortex and it moves through space, our galaxy is moving away from other galaxies, the whole universe is
expanding at ever increasing rate, it is being pushed away by Dark Energy.  All of that has been observed and confirmed.

So please, put away your flat, 6000 years old Earth, the Great Flood and that 'a man created from dirt, a woman from a rib bone' nonsense to rest.

Religion is based on Arts (literature).
Religion exists because people have a natural knowledge of God in their hearts, because nobody knows the future, and because people are trying to find out more about God and their future.



Science is based on Mathematics (statistics, calculus, algebra, probability, geometry etc.).
These things you list do not exist naturally. They are language(s) created by people, that people use to attempt to bring the fantastically complex things of the universe, down to a simplicity where we can understand them. Because they are not complete, and because they do not show everything, they are limited, and often wrong.



Scientific theories are developed using Math.  They are validated (or invalidated) in the lab.  There is no faith involved.
Faith is involved until theories have been tested out enough so that they can be proven factual or not factual. The theories that are not factual are dropped as theories. So are the theories that can never be proven one way or the other. This last point is why Big Bang Theory should have been dropped as from the list of theories long ago. It can never be proven one way or another, even if its model can be proven possible.


Religious dogma was developed by people to control other people.
In the case of the religion of believing science theory to be fact, and in the case of the atheism religion, you are right.



I urge you to learn more about science before you speak about it.
LOL. Are you this ignorant about science theory? Or are you simply trolling?



New scientific theories are being developed as we speak.
And this is good. The thing that is bad is turning them into religions by believing that they are factual before they have been proven to be factual.



If your belief system is based on the fact that something is mysterious and unknown therefore it must be God, get ready for this belief system to be shaken to its core.

If you think God is behind the Big Bang, be prepared to move your God concept further into unknown.

Earth is spinning on its axis, it goes around the Sun, Solar system is a vortex and it moves through space, our galaxy is moving away from other galaxies, the whole universe is
expanding at ever increasing rate, it is being pushed away by Dark Energy.  All of that has been observed and confirmed.
That these things have been observed is factual. The explanations of what they are is only theory. Close to 100% of this is explained only in theoretical form. You can hope the theory is fact, but you don't know it is fact. So, stop proclaiming that your religious belief about this stuff is reality.



So please, put away your flat, 6000 years old Earth, the Great Flood and that 'a man created from dirt, a woman from a rib bone' nonsense to rest.


Since there is nothing but theory that contradicts the Bible record, and since theory is not known to be fact, go with the Bible record rather than the unknown.

Appealing to biblical authority with people who don't accept the bible as authoritative is pretty silly. It's the worst sort of pointless circular logic.

The problem with this is that it is actually known  Cheesy

90% of the stuff in the Bible is plainly untrue, it is not methaporicaly said, it is not an allegory

It's just stuff that isn't true

The whole Old Testament was written prior to 2400 years ago. The fact of the age of the Dead Sea Scrolls, which are from about 400 B.C., shows that the O.T. is similar today, to what it was back then. Using scientific extrapolation, odds are that the O.T. is similar all the way back to the times that each book was written. Yet, there is a symmetry in the whole thing that makes it look like it was written at the same time, even though it was written over hundreds of years.

The point is, for this to have happened, means that there was a Guide to making it happen - God. In addition, The people who wrote it and copied it so accurately shows that it was real enough so that they understood the importance of it.

The Bible is true. If it weren't, it would have perished long ago, and if we had any copies at all, they would be museum pieces. Rather, because of the greatness of the Bible, the greatest nations on earth have become great through following it. God has made them great because they respected Him enough to hold His Word important and sacred in their hearts.

Sorry I disagree, the Bible has changed. The wording has changed. Just like a good fashion outfit it changes with the season and fashions of the time. If it were true and correct this would not have happened.

But since atheists don't believe in your magical places, therefore they don't fear it. So no, you're wrong. They don't hate it, but dislike it since that's the thinking from 2000 years ago and if you didn't notice humanity and science have come a long way, unlike muslim countries, they went 500 years back in time.

"The people who wrote it and copied it so accurately" wrong, simply because it's very hard to really accurately translate and copy a certain book or text through more than 1000 years, so who knows what has changed and what the original bible chapters looked like.

and why is the bible as a book so great? is it maybe because christianity is the biggest religion in the world and there's influence of it on every continent? and before you ask, christianity wasn't spread around that peacefully, specially on Nordic peninsula and Americas and Africa which was colonised.

"the greatest nations on earth have become great through following it." Name one.

The changes in the O.T. are so minor that they change the meaning of nothing. Dead Sea Scrolls attest to this.

N.T. changes do not exist since about 350 A.D.  The few fragments that we have found from the 1st century A.D. show that nothing has changed.

Of course, simply stating it here means nothing more than to give us a starting point if we are really interested in doing research.

Again, outside of the shape of the letters of the alphabet, the Hebrew Isaiah at the time of the printing press is essentially the same as that in the Dead Sea Scrolls from 2,000 years earlier. The minor changes don't change the meaning in any way. Check it out.

Btw, the reason most of the people came to North America back when the United States was formed, was for religious freedom, to get away from religious persecution in Europe. And the religion was Christianity.

I do not think BSDecker types studied the history of their cult.  Most of Europe was 'Christianized' by force, sword and fire.
Never mind Africa and Americas.  How many native Indians (North and South American) had to die for the rest of them to accept Christ :-)

What ISIS is doing is nothing comparing to what the Christian crusaders did to native populations around the world.

The whole Old Testament was written prior to 2400 years ago. The fact of the age of the Dead Sea Scrolls, which are from about 400 B.C., shows that the O.T. is similar today, to what it was back then. Using scientific extrapolation, odds are that the O.T. is similar all the way back to the times that each book was written. Yet, there is a symmetry in the whole thing that makes it look like it was written at the same time, even though it was written over hundreds of years.

The point is, for this to have happened, means that there was a Guide to making it happen - God. In addition, The people who wrote it and copied it so accurately shows that it was real enough so that they understood the importance of it.

The Bible is true. If it weren't, it would have perished long ago, and if we had any copies at all, they would be museum pieces. Rather, because of the greatness of the Bible, the greatest nations on earth have become great through following it. God has made them great because they respected Him enough to hold His Word important and sacred in their hearts.

Cool

"The people who wrote it and copied it so accurately" wrong, simply because it's very hard to really accurately translate and copy a certain book or text through more than 1000 years, so who knows what has changed and what the original bible chapters looked like.

and why is the bible as a book so great? is it maybe because christianity is the biggest religion in the world and there's influence of it on every continent? and before you ask, christianity wasn't spread around that peacefully, specially on Nordic peninsula and Americas and Africa which was colonised.

"the greatest nations on earth have become great through following it." Name one.

I do not think BSDecker types studied the history of their cult.  Most of Europe was 'Christianized' by force, sword and fire.
Never mind Africa and Americas.  How many native Indians (North and South American) had to die for the rest of them to accept Christ :-)

What ISIS is doing is nothing comparing to what the Christian crusaders did to native populations around the world.


BADecker, you want to learn what your Christian comrades did to the natives, read:

The method that many peoples of the past used to spread the knowledge of Christianity was a wrong method. But at least Christianity was spread. Your life is a recipient of the great things God did and does for His people, even if you receive it incidentally.

Fortunately for all of us, the atheism religion that attempted to spread itself through 150 million or more deaths in the 20th Century, has proven to be the failure that it is, whereas Christianity has proven its greatness by being a big success.

So please, put away your flat, 6000 years old Earth, the Great Flood and that 'a man created from dirt, a woman from a rib bone' nonsense to rest.
Since there is nothing but theory that contradicts the Bible record, and since theory is not known to be fact, go with the Bible record rather than the unknown.

Cool
Appealing to biblical authority with people who don't accept the bible as authoritative is pretty silly. It's the worst sort of pointless circular logic.


The problem with this is that it is actually known  Cheesy

Again, outside of the shape of the letters of the alphabet, the Hebrew Isaiah at the time of the printing press is essentially the same as that in the Dead Sea Scrolls from 2,000 years earlier. The minor changes don't change the meaning in any way. Check it out.

Btw, the reason most of the people came to North America back when the United States was formed, was for religious freedom, to get away from religious persecution in Europe. And the religion was Christianity.

Cool

Wasn't it the gold rush? So they went to america because of christianity because christianity was already a main religion in Europe.. .wat

Btw you still didn't name one country.
