Should Governments rescindthe noble lie of religions?

These lies were and are givento insure social harmony in an uneducated and gullible population. OurGovernments lie and allow liars to lie to us of the supernatural, fantasy andmagic.

Governments learned a longago that religions were a good tool to use for social manipulation and control.Governments allowed and encouraged belief in fantasy, miracles and magic, theopium of the masses, and have lived with the drugged up population and religions.

Governments, with this noblelie, have maintained the current idiocy of immoral teachings within religionsand have caused much unjust discrimination and denigration of innocentpopulations of Gays, women and many others, for just doing what we now see asmoral.

Do you think we have maturedenough as a people that we can now rescind the laws that protect religions andgives them a tax haven and legitimacy?

Are we intelligent enough tonot need these lies anymore?

Can the population take ourreal reality or is the Government just going to let the flim-flam con game ofreligions to continue to damage the mental capabilities of the citizens in ourcountry?

Flim-flam and con artists aresubject to the law of the land. --- except for religions.

Can the population of Canadatake the truth?

What laws that "protect religion" do think we should rescind? Just the laws regarding tax benefits, or the God-given right to worship freely?

That's man-given, not god-given, all religions, given the power to do so, have tried to suppress other religions. There are still a lot of what are often called blue laws, or Lord's Day Acts, or Sunday observance laws, something like that, on the books in many jurisdictions.

The Noble lie that God exists in the first place.

Paying their fair share of taxes would not hurt and would lessen the burden on the rest of us.


BTW. Which God gave anyone any right to do anything?
Your imaginary one perhaps?

The Government has given religions the right to lie to those less able to resist their indoctrination.

Some people think that is immoral but not Christians of course as they call evil good and have the same immoral views as their genocidal son murdering God.

They sure teach great morals eh?

It's so refreshing that atheists don't preach, don't judge, don't attempt to force their religious views. So much more enlightened.

 

[French Patriot]

Short answer
NO.

So, as a nation, we should continue to lie to our citizens.

Thanks for your foolish opinion.

Agreed.

Strange that we would want to pit one religion against the other in our homeland.

Nope.

Are we intelligent enough tonot need these lies anymore?

Apparently not. But some people are intelligent and wise enough not to snivel about what other people like in their life until they are affected by it.

Why ask a question when you should know that you will receive dissenting opinions. So who is the fool.

Who is an atheist?
Not me.
Mind you, their morals are much better than those of believers.

But I would hate them as much as you seem to if they acted like theists.

Do you have proof supporting your statement- or is it just malodorous gas. And we know where that originates.

If you wait till they snivel at the damage, it is too late.

It is my view that all literalists and fundamentals hurt all of us whoare moral religionists as well as those who do not believe. They all hurt theirparent religions and everyone else who has a belief or not. They make us allinto laughing stocks and should rethink their position. There is a Godhead butnot the God of talking animals, genocidal floods and retribution. Beliefs infantasy, miracles and magic are evil.

Being an atheist means you don't believe in God. It doesn't mean you aren't a complete (something we're no longer allowed to say). Why do people keep thinking that being an atheist means you're enlightened, or tolerant, or polite?

'It's not your religion that determines if you are a good person, it's your behaviour'

You should take care of that problem.

To your question though.
Yes I do.
But if you think I will waste my time with you, you are sadly mistaken.

The question was- Should Governments rescindthe noble lie of religions?

Rather simplistic question - Perhaps you find it difficult to comprehend - NO

I've met many atheists who know that.... but my jab was at the ones who don't.

Caveat emptor.

It is my view that all literalists and fundamentals hurt all of us whoare moral religionists as well as those who do not believe.

That can be said for anyone with strong beliefs. So you add to the fray? You are not helping the issue any.

They all hurt theirparent religions and everyone else who has a belief or not.

Like I said, life can be a bitch. People that preach are no concern of mine until they start sniveling ..... like you are doing at this point in time.

There is a Godhead

Possibly; possibly not. The probabilities are against it.

butnot the God of talking animals, genocidal floods and retribution. Beliefs infantasy, miracles and magic are evil.

Bullsplat. Many tales have very valuable bits of wisdom.

For evil to grow my friends, all good people need do is nothing.

No-one can do "nothing".
BTW, the quote you refer to is from Edmund Burke. Plagiarism is evil.

Oh boy argument. How is it that apples can be considered god given (mother nature) while a predilection to worship a supreme being is not. Apples are good for us and I understand many consider the confidence in a supreme being similarly nourishing in a clinically proven way. I'm sure such a base point of view has been seriously debunked many times before but I would like some clarification. So do we have a god given right to apples?

Will a good person embrace aGod who has his own son murdered to teach us that it is good to punish the innocentinstead of the guilty if he demands it?

It was God's plan from thebeginning to have Adam and Eve eat the forbidden fruit. This can bedemonstrated by the fact that the bible says that Jesus "was crucifiedfrom the foundations of the Earth," that is to say, God planned to crucifyJesus as atonement for sin before he even created human beings or God damnedsin.

If God had not intended humans to sin from the beginning, why did he build intothe Creation this "solution" for sin? Why create a solution for aproblem you do not anticipate?

God knew that the moment he said "don't eat from that tree," the diewas cast. The eating was inevitable. Eve was merely following the plan.

This then begs the question.

What kind of God would plan and execute the murder of his own son when therewas absolutely no need to?

Only an insane God. That’s who.

The cornerstone of Christianity is human sacrifice, thus showing it‘s immorality.

One of Christianity's highest form of immorality is what they have doneto women.

They have denied them equality and subjugated them to men.
