The real issue is that innocent people have been continually beaten up, killed and kicked out of their homes and this has continued. No mandate by the Allied forces or US approval or any previous adjudication of "not occupied" or "disputed territory" justifies any government in doing this. The pr...

@Rezafication The nuclear bombings killed 240,000 people, mostly civilians. Hmm, kill a ton of civilians to get a message across in order to end the war. Sounds a bit like Terrorist mentality to me (only the US is more effective at mass destruction) ... Seems to come down to a basic communication...

People justify oppressing other people because of insecurities, intolerance of differences, because of prejudiced education, and as "payback" for having been wronged themselves. Suppression has occurred from opposing scientific theories, customs, skin colors, social beliefs, political beliefs - s...

Makes sense that science should be able to cover morality and even spirituality. It is simply research and codification of knowledge after all and there is obviously the existence of something to be known here. Though the brain part was an unscientific assumption.

Oh I just re-watched this vid and see it disputes Webster's Dictionary. Lol. Words develop by common usage. You can't just petition a dictionary to change it's meaning. It reflects us, not vice versa. "Atheist" comes from a derivation "atheos" which is "without god" and the "ism" is added after. ...

@DragracingX Are you kidding me? The problem is people that think they can persecute and violate and torture. It is human to have one's own thoughts and beliefs. No one has the right to hurt another just because they disagree. That you would "destroy religion" means you are one of those that woul...

You are not alone -- this is a sample of the human condition. Yes there is hope but it is not in drugs. You can take cocaine or zoloft or some other mind altering drug to give you a temporary fix but as any addict will tell you, it only makes the condition worse & you end up in an even worse dwin...

@SpeakingMyMind7 and @MrSilcon605 Lol, um, perhaps there is far FAR more to life than being physically appealing to guys like you so you can "jerk off"? I'm sure that's obvious to most but I just thought someone should put it in writing here. You are quite entitled to your limited viewpoints thou...

@ScorpiusIncorruptus You're welcome! It had quite an impact on me too.

@killerrabit112 You are right. All the theories and scientific authorities in the world do not supersede personal experience and observation. Problems only occur when people of any belief try to force those beliefs on others -- this occurs with ANY beliefs, whether religious, scientific, politic...

@MrMaster90 The point I'm making is when people are SO adamant about one set of beliefs (I assume you adhere to both "evolution & abiogenesis" as "true") that we have to argue & resort to insulting or attacking people that consider otherwise, than we have crossed a threshold of reason. Why do we ...

@DonLeVisi lol, you're having the same conversation over here. For the record you are applying the "a-", meaning "without", to incorrectly modify the meaning of "theism", meaning "belief in God". "a-" actually modifies "god". The derivation is here: Origin: 1580–90; < Greek áthe ( os ) godless +...
