This is amazing...as an atheist I am dismayed by silly sweeping statements made by some folks...(note, Dawkins, Fry, et al tend to make more considered statements than people are led to believe , I refer more to the general atheist)...and just as finding God isn't the whole complete answer, deciding God doesn't exist shouldn't issue one with a right to dismiss pertinent questions in philosophy.
@seantaylor1334 Religion more into intelligence? Religion concerned with the truth? How can any religion based on ancient texts be concerned with truth, they have to bend the truth to make reality fit their ancient texts. Religion without it's ancient texts has no foundation, and in reality that is precisely what is wrong with it, it has no real foundation in Truth. Stories of invisible beings and their offspring are make believe.
@mehldau125 Since the telescope and microscope have proven them to be noting more than myths, superstitions and absurdities. Where were you during history and science classes?
@ivlfounder look the troll had something to say, but still no proof of his delusion, no proof of his god, no proof that he knows what this god wants, or will do, or has done, nothing.....

@ivlfounder Atheism isn't a religion, it's the truth. Religion has always had a problem with the truth and intelligence. It's a historical fact.

"Atheism isn't a religion, it's the truth"
I'm so sure you've searched the entire Universe for God.
"Religion has always had a problem with the truth and intelligence."
Religion has helped science more times than you can count.
"It's a historical fact."
That's not agreed upon by all Historians? tell me another one.

@mechanicmike69 I think that religion now is more into intelligence; however, I think that religious belief has always been concerned with truth.
