Buhddist, hindu and christians also have scriptures or various guidelines just like the quran. Prehaps you should look things like these up if you're curious and wish to comment on them.
Why can´t we compare these religions with islam? They are pretty much the same, they give different guidelines on how to live your life, how the world came to be, which people to kill, what to eat and what to not eat. ect. Many people who study religion compare these all the time why researching. I remember Doing that in highschool while having class in world religions.
Pardon me, but i do not think i understand what "based on science based is?" could you reword?
@almao2006 Except that all scientists say that Evolutionary Biology is a science, and it's actually one of the best supported in terms of evidence. Stop being dishonest.
I know I offended many I was calling the bluff of the atheists who have taken over the schools -and furthermore only animals belong in zoos (being untamed) we dont- we are not like the animals and neither are they like us there has never been a hybrid species of a human animal.The theory evolution is socialist propaganda and a conditioning tool reduces your ability to a base level it is a vainly imagined theory - I would debate anybody even this man...
Why is it that people of faith seem to have something against evolution, but have no problem with gravity, plate tectonics, demografi ect.? It is becouse you somehow imagined that it opposes your faith. Would you deny gravity if your faith demanded it?
Just like all other sciences,evolution has been tested, proven and observed for years and is now usedl in present research. Evolution is just a part of biology just as biochemistry, zoologi and so on. Why attack 1 in particular?
secular humanism is a contrived belief system that is cunningly devised and a social engineered policy that been is canada and the U.S. ever since the sixties when the Lords prayer was taken out of the schools...say hi to the ACLU take care
gentlemen its time give up your vainly imagined theories and come to your senses - if you actually believe that you are an animal- then you belong in zoo - when you get over the insult come to Jesus christ the Saviour who shed his blood for you and stop trying to hijack social policies by removing prayer from schools and smarten up evolution is lie and delusion that the gullible believe
@tgillspy How much money do you give your church? I don't give any money to any church. I think you're being willfully ignorant here as to who's actually being controlled. You're the one with the blinders on.
I believe the Bible because it has accurate accounts of actual historical events in the time when the people were actually alive who wrote it. And claim there writting were divinely inspired by God not myths thought up by men.
Reward and punishment are definitely a part of the Next Life on a very permanent basis. Those who suffer in this life and seemly have nothing to show for all their hard works, good deeds and sacrifices and maintaining the faith can look forward to a far greater reward in a place where these things will not be temporary but rather they will be for eternity.
"anyway children don't have to take their parents beliefs in order to survive."
Life is about surviving long enough to reproduce. Lets not forget that this psychology has developed over millions of years in a natural environment of death and destruction. There isn't enough time in a childs life to question things, they just copy everything without knowing why!
Atheism has always existed. There are far more these days because of science and our ability to answer questions about our origins.
Did you pick your accent that you speak with? Or did you subconsciously copy it from your parents and from other people around you?
The biggest influence on a child is it's parents. Children HAVE TO copy their parents in order to survive. You can see this happening in nature too... Those that didn't copy are not here to tell the tale.
Going with the flow or following the group ensures you survive.
...but by that time it shapes who you are. The influence is SO great that it's no longer a conscious decision. You cannot just change religions in the same way you cannot change your accent UNLESS the influence is substantial.
Pakistan is a "muslim" country
Ireland = Catholic
USA - Christian etc...
20 miles from where i live, people speak with a different accent. Religious people COPY their parents religion because at that young age it has an advantage to do so.
if it is a traditional culture that should be copied without any question,let billions go on doing it then
but if it is a way to our Creator and since there are many different claims and all cant be true,we should do our own search to find and embrace the only one real way
Translated means: It depends on how far that psychosis (delusional disorder) has taken hold! Many children can shake off religion but most cannot.
I dropped religion (christianity) around the same time my balls dropped! Or when i learned about the Holocaust where 6 million people were murdered. HOW could there be a "loving" god!?
Maybe there is a creator that set everything up? But then again, WHAT or WHO created that creator!?
My Father is agnostic and my Mother is Christian/Agnostic. I went to church from the age of 6-18 but i became an Atheist at the age of 32.
For me, being an Atheist is living my life as though nothing is there. No creator! How could i possibly know? In reality, i am agnostic when i think about it in more detail. There must be a reason for everything to happen!? The answers are not in religion but our own brains - using science!
Maybe we are potential gods in the making? Creators!!
If the rate of expansion one second after the big bang had been smaller by even one part in a hundred thousand million million, the universe would have recollapsed before it ever reached its present size.
It's not for ME to decide. If you believe in a personal god then you are delusional. I don't believe in a flat earth, miracles, angels, adam and eve, talking ants and snakes etc!
There are obviously questions that require an answer but being lazy and saying "god did it" is not for me!
Wow - You believe that god created adam as the first man, that mohammed flew to heaven on a horse type animal, that ants can talk, that the earth is flat, that mountains don't move and were placed from above, that gins and angels are real...
You really are fucked up in the head! Psychotherapy is what you need my friend.
Without ANY doubt, the quran suggests many times that the earth is flat. It talks of the moons and suns orbit BUT NOWHERE IN THE QURAN DOES IT MENTION THE EARTH'S ORBIT!!
They clearly thought that the earth was the centre of the universe and that it was pegged down by mountains.
It doesn't mention ANYWHERE else on earth OTHER THAN what they could see with their own eyes...
Dawkins assumes that the place where people are born, is purely by chance. He possesses no empirical evidence to support this, just as he possesses no empirical evidence to support that evolution, if it occurred, would "not" be purely by chance.
Though he assertively states that one scenario is governed by chance and the other isn't, while lacking evidence for both. It's clear to see, unless you're a cheerfully roaring, seated college Simianite, that he is merely, conveniently cherry picking
God has all of the undeniable proof you need, so why dont you go ask him yourself like we did?
Atheists like yourself are self deceived, you will only reject anything I say, so why say anything?
It's not my job to convince anybody that Jesus is real, only to point them in the right direction so, my job is done.
Nobody has proof of anything but if you're really looking for evidence to reject, go checkout my channel and the scientific evidence supporting my claims.
Just curious how did you decide that it was cristianity out of all the thousand of religions that is the one true religion. Did you evaluate them all ? What was it that made you realise that the bible is the true word of god and all other religious text therefore being myths and fiction ?
There are still people living in the rainforest who doesent know what jesus cristianity or the bible even is.
You dont have any problem worshiping a god that will send those people to hell ?
So long as its not islamic dogma. Do I have that right?
As per your question, "would you convert to Christianity and get "saved" by Jesus if you were born into a ANY OTHER religion", depends on wether I heard the gospel message and saw it acted out in your hypothetical universe.
I think you have all missed the point of his response.
Stripping his response of all of it's parable and rebuke, he is referring to the significance of the christian god amongst the myriad of other gods one could choose from.
Essentially, she proposed Pascals wager, and he exposed that it is a false dichotomy.
"he is referring to the significance of the christian god amongst the myriad of other gods one could choose from."
Its a red herring because of the way he answered. Its changing the subject to avoid answering. A straight answer that maintains the objection to pascal's wager would have been "If I'm wrong and their is a God, this many religions say I'm going to hell, this many religions say I get to heaven regardless etc"
well the answer is obvious..if dawkins is wrong about christianity, he's going to hell...anyone knows that (including dawkins himself)....but the question is clearly a stupid question based on pascals wager which many religious people try to use as a reason to defend religious belief...
A jew could ask a mormon "what if you're wrong about mormonism?"...a muslim could ask a hindu "what if you're wrong about hinduism?"...the list goes on...
The man is really Idiot
Evolution is not a SCIENCE but just a improvisation

They hide from the truth by refusing to take any alternative opposing claims, theories seriously.

In order for these closed minds people to stay self deceived,they will claim there is no real purpose or meaning to these questions.
