Nope, everyone should be allowed to believe what they want and in a few cases religion is actually beneficial. Just ask the recovered alcoholic who found the strength to mend his ways or a multitude of others with disabilities they were able to overcome through prayer etc.

I fear that you once again have totally screwed up a thread.

For one so intelligent as yourself and for one who has been here for a few years now you have yet to figure out how to put clips in without screwing up the whole page. Look at that mess!



Blame me for what the system does. That is your style and the extent of your thinking ability if you think I would leave it as is if I had a choice.

I wonder if he would be will to start educating people in the ME?

If only they knew better like FP

I define myself as a Gnostic Christian and with your sense of morality, you are not fit to judge those.

Your condition is obvious to everyone here FL... And no, I did not judge you, I simply voiced an observation

I will if you ask the 1/2 of the population that are female and are discriminated against without cause or the gays that will die in Africa because a Christian church funded the Kill the Gays bill.


Strange that Canadian men don't have the balls to fight for their women. I thought we were made of better stuff and believe in equality.

For what the system does? I thought you were intelligent enough to figure out how to post clips!

Look at that mess.... double clips, font all farged up, clips with no content.

Educate yourself on how to use the system properly.

JLM, what about those that feel that their beliefs are correct and they require converting all others? Like religious extremists? not just the muslim extremists, but the christian extremists too.

Religion is a crutch for the weak minded and a soother for wimps afraid of death.



No argument. I temper that a bit due to our hivish or groupish instincts that soothes our fellowship desires but that does not excuse adopting such poor morals.

Nice to know.


I am pleased that it appears correct on some computers. Mine doubles the links but that does not completely ruin the post as our less intelligent friend says. Strange that all he can do is bitch instead of ignore.


I do take the s out of the links I post and sometimes it works well and sometimes not.

Your post is a disaster. Fix it tard.

Forget it... you couldn't fix it if you wanted to. You're just not smart.

Stick to your bigotry. You're great at that.

Funny you say that, I was thinking that exact same idea whilst reading your endless excuses for 'the science' on the AGW thread

He can't... It's God's will

The first intelligent and truthful thing you have said to date.


Your quite the *** hole though because you are not making any suggestions and just bitching.
Get a life or at least half a brain.

You could use a course in reading comprehension. Nowhere did I recommend changing anyone of killing anyone. Religion can be a two edged sword- intelligent people will recognize and use it accordingly. As I would never think of ramming religion down anyone's throat, neither would I try ramming atheism down anyone's throat. Believe what you want to believe- don't necessarily act on it!

Because you are..

A: Too Lazy

B: Do not have the intelligence to fix it yourself.


Your quite the *** hole

Whoop! I guess it's my lucky day!

though because you are not making any suggestions and just bitching.

Here's a suggestion... learn how to post clips properly.

We should encourage critical thinking and science in schools. We already do to an extent. If the result is people becoming less religious then OK. If not, whatever. Religion is personal. People should be equipped to make intelligent decisions and if we do that and they still believe, what else can we do? Intelligent people can be religious and there are good arguments in favour of theism.
